Try (608) 241-1124 in Madison WI. They seems to want to hide from the web. So if they ask, this number came right off the instructions they sent out with...
John is either quite ill or deceased. The company was John and his sons. I don't know that they have made anything at all for several years. Sad, Winslow had...
How can I make a good mouthpiece sound a little more tubby? I've got this alto Meyer copy that plays better than the others but sounds a bit thinner. So...
I am not the most experienced refacer on this newsgroup (by a longshot), but I have found that if the piece plays well (i.e., easily and comfortably), the...
What I have found is that taking the baffle down directly behind the tip rail will definitely smooth the sound--rounding it a bit if it is very edgy, but not...
I have a student (very good player) with an older Yamaha 62 tenor and he is searching for a mouthpiece. What seems to work well with this type of horn. He is...

Sorry, I was being flip about the Link thing... But seriously, I would lengthen the facing to about 21-22 mm's. I would take a little off the rollover, not...
For general playing, jazz band, combo, commercial music, for a student I highly recommend the Runyon Custom Spoiler #7 (.090" / 2.3 mm) for younger students...
If you are happy with the way the piece responds I wouldn't lower the baffle just behind the tip. I'd start about 1/2 way back and lower from there. As Keith...
Personally, I wouldn't consider making any major changes to any mouthpiece as I feel that the designer of the piece either did a good job or didn't. Far be it...
What doesn't he like about his Meyer, and what style(s) will he be using this new mouthpiece to play? If he has the patience to find a good one, a Berg should...
