Hi,
one question occured during the collection of MPC over the time: How to identify the system, this MPC was made for originally?
The problem is, that I got some MPC, neither numbered nor brand marked. The tenons show bore diameters of 14,6mm to 15,4mm and outer diameters varying from 21,9mm to 22,5mm. Length of all MPC is different from 87mm to 92mm.
Some of this MPC tenons are longer, some shorter. If I install such a MPC on the french barrel - it works. And if installed on a German barrel - it works to. The rails allow to install a french cut reed but a German cut reed too (they are wider than 0,5mm and therefore fitting from 12,5 to 13,5mm).
Now is the question, how to divide the wide/open french MPC class from the tight/short German one. I found only one hint to inspect the chamber walls angle for, but is this really the one and only item?
Is there any Golden Way to identify correctly?
How do you sort a box full of MPC right?
kindly
Roman
PS: I took the publication of Stefanie Angloher regarding the sound effect of bore, but the division table is not helpful to me.-/ Some MPC could be both... ;-(
