I'm sorry, I am a little behind, and this may have already been
addressed, but I like the Morgan mouthpieces enough that I thought it
merited a response. (Better late than never??)

Here, in the Pittsburgh, PA area many students of Thomas Thompson
(co-prin Pgh Sym Orch) use the morgan. Mr. Thompson uses it too. I use
his student "Pro-Tone" model with as many of my students as I can get to
buy them. The student model is more than worth it at $35!! I think it
is the best student mouthpiece. At least for the sound I am after. I
do use the pro model, RM06. I sometimes go back to the more open RM10,
but I usually revert to the 6. I use it with Black Master reeds.

Give them a try!!
