Yes Loh.

I have tried the Vandorean Crystal Mouthpiece (A1) and I am not fond of
it. The opening is not wide and I get a Stuff'd sound out of those
mouthpieces.

I am currently using a B45 modified by Mr. Thomas Dowling of Toronto,
Ontario a clarinet teacher whom I have knowen for 10 years now.

If you are looking for a custom mouthpiece I suggest you first decide on
what you want your mouthpiece to do/ or sound like.

I am still looking for a mouthpiece that is free Blowing and has a nice
rich dark tone.

BTW my real name is Ian. (Disregard the Ham Burger).

Also Where do I send my Money for "The Clarinet Magazine"/
thanks
