Re: Bonade Mouthpiece

This mouthpiece is probably a Bonade Clarity with the three indentions or cuts across the table that were designed to help with reed vibration. Some of these mouthpieces are very good, most will need re-facing. The more interesting part of this picture is actually the vintage Sumner Accousticut ligature--made of very fine nickle silver and similar in quality in my opinion to the Frank L. Kaspar ligatures of the same period. Chester Rowell
