This tighter neck that opens into a conical taper is often what I'll label as my 'Instant Rockstar Kit'. This didge fits that label. The top end being as compressed as it is causes an exageration of any tiny tidbit of information you give it. It's kind of like playing a video game in which your race cars' accelerator is way too twitchy and delivers too much power...until you learn to drive it like you stole it, then all of a sudden you're a whole new character with super powers, in this case, a freakin' rock star, and obviosly your racecar is a didgeridoo (duh!) , one that magicly makes you way better than you actually are.
