practical way to make a sensible choice, given that the local store

I'll take replies ON LIST....people have to be able to try
mouthpieces.....even minute differences can make a big difference.

I think we're ALL willing to ship mouthpieces anywhere, with a deposit.

I've sold several hundred mouthpieces over the internet and have yet to be
cheated...

Most have been in the U.S., but I've also shipped mouthpieces to Korea,
Brussels, and Switzerland.

Cool, huh?

I love it.

Slight commercial message...I am very interested in working with University
level clarinet teachers. I'll ship to a prof, up to siz mouthpieces, no
deposit necessary. Then your stundents can try them out and see if they work
for them.........

I always had a difficulty getting batches of mouthpieces back when I was
teaching...
