Lynn,

I have made it my own personal policy not to buy truly valuable things,
such as musical instruments, or mouthpieces, on e-bay. It simply isn't
good business for me personally.

Now, I WILL do business with regulars here on the klarinet list! I
bought a WONDERFUL plastic clarinet from Sue Raycraft which is playing
well for me - and is a great beginner horn for my son. I would do
business with Sue again. Additionally, I enjoy reading her posts! Hi Sue!

I bought one of Walter Grabner's mouthpieces, and currently, he is
overhauling my Yamaha Bb - Hi Walter. If you REALLY want the Holy Grail
of clarinets & mouthpieces, check out Walter's website

http://www.clarinetxpress.com/

Walter is the bees' knees" and REALLY KNOWS WHAT HE IS DOING. You get
what you pay for AND MUCH MUCH MORE! REALLY! I LOVE my mouthpiece.
You are reading the post of someone who HATES trying out mouthpieces. I
can't stand that process. It gets on my nerves to the nth degree. So,
finding one so quickly that worked so beautifully, and was so well
crafted - All I can do is recommend Walter's work to any and all.
