Years ago I bought a wonderful Eb Buffet R13 and a good custom mouthpiece but was never happy. Finally I stripped it down and re-worked it, then made a couple of mouthpieces for it. Now I am VERY happy!

I have blanks and think that you will find my mouthpieces very nice. I don't have any of the problems I have heard mentioned here or elsewhere---they just play great.

After playing mine, I don't think you will ever want to discuss production stuff again.

You'll have to forgive me - but you're using words I don't understand. :)
p/p34? I have an A. Gigliotti - is that the same as a P. Gigliotti?
When you say table, I assume you are not referring to something I prop my feet
up on. Facing?

Please, educate me.
