Neil, actually I have had a good supply of Chedevilles and Kaspars over the
years. I am an active buyer and seller of instruments. I have collected quite
a few, bought and traded for more, buy many from saxophone and woodwind
dealers in the country, find a few here in Texas on older Buffet instruments,
etc. I have donated several to friends. Recently, on E-bay, I purchased a
Selmer Series 9 clarinet that had one Kaspar 14 advertised with it, and after
some conversation with the seller, bought another that he had. I like to get
these fine mouthpieces into the hands of good players. I have someone who also
looks for me in France, have several dealers who call me whenever they have
some. I often swap vintage saxophone mouthpieces that I come accross with
these fellows. Robert Ackerman currently has many nice older Selmer table and
oval stamp clarinet mouthpieces, I have purchased an occasional mpc from USA
horn, etc. I also have several musically oriented pawn shop owners who look
and save older french blanks for me. Thanks, Chester
