Subj: Re: [kl] metal clarinet mouthpiece

Hi,
Metal clarinets used the same mouthpiece as wooden or plastic clarinets. You are missing a part that receives the mouthpiece and fits into the top. I bought a mouthpiece about a year ago on ebay and the adapter from a metal clarinet was attached to the mouthpiece. It had a cork on one end of the adapter so it could fit into a metal clarinet. I threw it out. That's the part you need. I don't think the the adapter was a standard size on the end that went into the top of the clarinet, but if you could find one it could probably be adapted to fit your clarinet. The end that the mouthpiece fits into is a standard size that any clarinet mouthpiece would fit. Since metal clarinets are not made anymore, you might have to buy another metal clarinet that has an adapter attached. Good luck.
