Hi Everyone and a Happy Thanksgiving!
I have never played on a nickel silver leadpipe and was wondering what other players opinions were.
I am considering one for my Bach 42 G with a nickel overslide and yellow gold crook.
Thanks
Randy

I used one for a while and found that it gave slightly clearer articulations than brass, but this was minute. When tried copper, that was the trick for me.

Not very helpful but just my experience. The best option would be to try out the ns lead pipe, if possible.
