We are on the mouthpiece subject, I will ask my question. My son who has
played for 5 years uses a Vandoren B45 on his R13. He also has been using
Mitchel Lurie premium 3 1/2 reeds. While he is doing pretty well in his
studies, I think his sound is harsh on above the staff notes (his teacher
doesn't seem to be as bothered by this as I am, but I listen to him more
than she does).

He tried my 5RV and the somewhat similar Fobes mouthpiece I am using now
but didn't like them. So I am looking for ideas of things to try that are
closer to the B45, particularly if any one has solved a similar problem.
