Bill, which two?????? Am I one? LOL!

Thanks for the plug. By the way, I actually ENJOY refacing and re-voicing old
mouthpieces, although there are some for which nothing can be done. But it
can be an interesting challenge....and there is much to learn from examining
multiple makes and models of mouthpieces.

I even worked on several glass mouthpieces, two of which I improved greatly,
and one that was stubbornly resistant to anything I couold do!!!! LOL.......

A belated holiday greeting to all.

I have not been posting much lately due to an illness and subsequent death in
the family. My father-in-law passed away on New Year's Day. He was not a
musician himself, but was a husband to one and a father to two, and a
surrogate father to me. We'll miss him.

Walter
