Subj: [kl] Pyne Clarion mouthpiece symbols
Date: Fri, 4 Dec 1998 16:52:36 -0500

The letters engraved on each of our Signature mouthpiece models:
Bn, Bc, Pk, ~M, Jx, etc. refer only to the bore taper.

The symbols we engrave above the bore designations refer to the
facings.

A check mark is for a medium close facing;

a sine wave with a single slash through it is a medium facing;

a sine wave with two slashes through it is a medium open facing.

If you would like more information, please feel free to contact me
directly at the address below.
