Dear Ken,

Mouthpieces? I'M looking for a good one myself. At the moment I'm
vacillating between the open B45 and relatively closed RV13 lyre, both by
Vandoren and am happy with neither, so I've got the Fobes Debut on order.
Reeds? Best is to try to make-em yourself, a la Dave Pino's description in
his book, "The Clarinet and Clarinet Playing", unless a lister has a better
idea? You can order blanks from Glotin Reeds in Paris, address I can give
you and it's also in Pino's book.
