 Normandy 4 original Mouthpiece?
Author: Ben Shaffer

Just curious about this.
I've got a Normandy 4.
I believe its later model judging by the Logo
The Normandy came with a Woodwind Vito II plastic Mouthpiece and it doesn't sound 2 bad.
A year or so later I saw the same model Normandy 4 advertized for sale on craigsList and it to came with a Woodwind Vito II Mouthpiece.
Can I presume they were the original Mp to come with these Horns or likely just replacements and if so what was the original MP used?

The later Normandy 4 did come with the Woodwind Company Vito II as standard equipment.

Earlier Model 4s were often equipped with hard rubber Noblet 2V and 3V mouthpieces. These were made from Riffault blanks. I may have one of these lying around if you're curious to learn more about it.
