I am no expert in mouthpieces, I just happen to play Oehler systems. The
moutpiece question is probably as "dangerous" in Germany as in the US :-)

I play a Zinner mouthpiece no. 3, with Esser Solo 3 ( the reed question
is dangerous as well). Vandoren sells some mouthpieces and reeds for
german systems. The reeds are good, but I found them to have a small
lifetime.
