For awhile I was talking with Charles regularly on the phone. I actually
owed him some of my time and/or money and had also purchased a bass clarinet
for him.

Charles Bay mouthpieces are used in this area alot. I have sold dozens over
the years, particularly to students at Towson State. Unfortunately, owing
Charles money is something that you don't want to do. He can get pretty
vocal about it... ;-)

One nice thing about Bay mouthpieces is that Charles number them and keeps
records of the measurements for copying purposes. This is a help if you want
a mouthpiece like the one you just broke. At least it's a starting point.
