Hi, I will definitly try. Thank you for the suggestion.

Hi! So, following up on the initial post. I got into contact with Labella. This has been the single most friendliest and coolest customer support I ever witnessed in any area. After some discussion I was told that Labella developped a non-tapered B for the 760FS-B DTB set and I could get my...

Thanks for all the suggestions. I'm still in contact with the very friendly Labella support and will share the outcome (could take some time).

Hey, not at all, thanks for the response. I'm in Europe, so phoning them has been somewhat out of the equation, but I tried e-mailing them again and yesterday they have responded briefly and friendly (no solution yet).
