This site is wonderful. My problem is that I have a 400 meg total (download and upload) for the month. Usually anyone who sends messages over 400k that are not...

After many years of working on mouthpieces, arthritis is now keeping me from holding the glass gage to the mouthpiece for any length of time. I can play my...
I once tried using a Rovner ligature to hold a glass gage to a mouthpiece. But I found that I got different readings from this arrangement. I guess it...
I have used a large Rovner ligature to hold it successfully. It seems to work pretty well. Thank you, David ________________________________ From: jorns4ever...

I'd opt for a shorter barrel....changing a mouthpiece will cause havoc with intonation.....unless you're going to rebore the whole mouthpiece. I just purchased...

There are several methods for measuring the tip opening shown in the Photos section on the Yahoo MouthpieceWork site. But we do not have a picture using a...
I have an Otto Link 8 metal that I wanted to reface because I never liked the response. It turns out that the curve near the break takes a sudden dip. The...
Yes, making the barrel shorter is the easiest way, but what do you do when you have a customer that does not what to change their barrel? The mouthpiece must...
