I guess no one knows anything about these mouthpieces. Or do you all hate me? I am feeling very sensitive today. Someone told me I should kill myself today. Not much of a clarinet issue, except that it makes it really hard to practice. Maybe if I play ffffff I will feel better.

Sneakers --
Just caught up with my sneezy--oops! "woodwind"--reading this morning. Hope you're still alive and feeling better.
Apparently there are no regulars here who play the Northway mouthpieces or you surely would have gotten some opinions by now. However, for what it's worth, a search with the google search engine using "northway mouthpieces" (without the quotation marks) turned up a few sites, including a music store in Utah where Mr. Northway apparently works--Summerhays Music Center.
If you're looking for personal evaluations by players, so far we've not been any help, but if you want information about the mouthpieces, I'm sure you can get it directly from the maker.
You might also want to check some of the saxophone bulletin boards, as Northway also makes sax mouthpieces.

Thank you Todd. I am alive and well! The location of the maker explains why the young man sitting next to me in the community orchestra was playing on a Northway. I live in Utah and no doubt he got the mouthpiece from Summerhay's. I told him I had never heard of it and he said it was suppose to be a really good mpc. The next week he was playing on a Morgan mpc(are they all handmade?, he only paid about $50 for it) which he was much happier with. His tone sounds much better with the Morgan.
Mark - I thought of marching around the neighborhood, playing the Mozart concerto, at FFFFFF, but decided against it.
