And let me guess, it's a freak'n Selmer. God what some people will do to get the "Right" name on their axe. Am I stating the obvious, or has this guy ever...
Hello! I recently got a 10* Florida Link, it´s fun to play and it has a big and even sound... But the plating is gone and I play it on a MK6 tenor which has...
My opinion is that plating is only for cosmetic appearance and to provide a barrier to the taste of brass. If the response of a mouthpiece changes after...
I am just curious what are some limits to most mpc's... I myself have only had good luck with Tenors up to 100mm - haven't tried 104 yet. And my good old...
I hope you have a problem with your scale conversions. A 50 on the glass guage would be 25mm, not 100mm. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? ...
OOps - ok I will use glass gauge numbers to be safer... 50 is the longest I have used so far on Tenor. Dukoff is 42. I am thinking about extending into the 52...
I've seen tenor facings up to 56. But most of them were "stretched" only for the .0015" feeler. The rest of the facing curve was for a more normal facing. I...
Keith is correct . Plating also prevent oxdation and pitting off brass mouthpieces. It can also reduce wear if HARD GOLD plating is used. Hard Gold plating...
Hi I am Italian, sound-play the alto sax... I am looking for hopelessly a mouthpiece: -Brilhart Level Air Metal (old model) as that used by David Sanborn in...
Thanks Keith! Yeah I found that my RPC was 50 and most of my Morgan's ran in the 48 range. I didn't have much success with response over the entire range of my...

A friend recently bought a D Parker Tenor Sax on EBAY for $250 ! Having octave key binding, they asked my help. It sure LOOKS good, apparently well-made, ...
With all due respect guys, this group is intended for the discussion of working on mouthpieces. You're not likely to get many responses regarding instruments....
I just found a little trick to isolate an area for sanding... I was working on an alto piece and had the lowest part of the lay cut nicely at 40. I didn't want...
Patrick I would be lost without the masking tape. However I am the odd one out who starts refacing from the table side and not from the tip like anyone else....
Alf, You're not the only one who starts at the table. The first thing I do is flatten the table. This, of course, changes the facing length. So, the next...
All, One of my other newly acquired interests is hand wood carving. While perusing one of the many sites featuring carving tools - and sharpening stones - I...

Isn't this how facets on diamonds and other jewels are polished? A high polish is really not necessary on the table/facing. But you want a little shine there,...
HI all, My B5 soprano graftonite is a bit stuffy on notes below 1st F. It isnt the horn, I've checked. Is there any modification I can do to open up the low ...
Have you tried other mouthpieces? You should get one you like better then mess around with the Graftonite. You can try a longer facing, but Graftonites are...
