<<<I'm not aware of any company selling any finished Zinner named
mouthpieces. We had the exclusive on the Jerry Hall Zinner models (JC1 &
JC2) until our filing bankruptcy last year soured our relationship with
Zinner. I will be rolling out these mouthpieces again in the next WWBW
catalog. The only difference will be in that the work will be done here in
the US by me as opposed to at the Zinner plant.>>>

Of course, lots of folks - Greg Smith, Brad Behn, Fred Rast, Walter Grabner,
Tom Ridenour, David McClune, Dan Johnston, Richard Hawkins, etc. and etc. -
use Zinner blanks to create their custom pieces. They're not "companies" I
suppose, but there are certainly lots of mounthpieces out there to choose
from with that construction.
