Unfortunately, mouthpieces aren't always consistent. My son's teacher had a
Larry Combs mouthpiece that I thought was really great. So I ordered one to
try and it was terrible. I sent it back.

Since you live in Los Altos, CA, I would suggest that you go visit Clark
Fobes in San Francisco and try his mouthpieces. Your chances of finding
something you really like would be better than ordering one (or even three)
at a time to try. I think I tried around 15 when I was there and bought
two.

Subject: new mouthpiece

Hey! I just got a new Morgan RM15 mouthpiece for Christmas. I had been
talking
nonstop abou tmy friend's mouthpice beacuse I had played on hers once and
loved it. But the one I have now doesn't respond as well and has a stuffy
tone. Should I send it back and ask for another? Would I possibly find a
better one by doing that? (I tried her mp on my clarinet so I know that's
not
the problem)
thank you
