As I understand the Profile 88 concept, both the B45 and the B45 Profile 88
will have the same exact facing. Only the slope of the angle of the top of
the mouthpiece (where you place your teeth) will be different on the Profile
88.

See http://www.vandoren.com/Product/products.htm where Vandoren says:

<<The only difference between the "Traditional" and "Profile 88" mouthpieces
is in the exterior angle of the beak. Therefore, the musician is free to
choose the model which suits his purpose in terms of best playing position,
easiest sound emission, greatest playing comfort and the most controllable
and precise articulation. >>
