Hi ClarenceT, I don't know if this will help, but if you will go to the following URL address, you should receive the names, addresses, phone numbers and web URL addresses of 42 mouthpiece makers. It's a long address, so I hope I get it right.
www.musicyellowpages.com/datatest/ylistings.php?categoryID=58G&
category=Mouthpieces (No spaces in address, i.e. category follows &.)
(I think you need to be careful of the capitalized letters.)
If you can get to this page, it has an incredible amount of info concerning mouthpiece manufacturers.
Good luck!
Dan

What's wrong with Johnston?
Greg Smith is in Chicago.
Good Luck!

David Hite, a sponsor of this BB, is on the East coast, in FL.
Give him a call at his 800 number, or visit his site.
He and Jean, his wife, can customize any of their fine mouthpieces to your exact specifications.

One of the repair techs in Montreal (Twigg's musique) is a maker, but is admittedly busy with repairs. Pascal tolerates extracurricullar staff activity to a limited degree (figuring buyers will get other things, as well)...
If Dan's stuff will work for you, then getting a 'fitting' makes a great deal of sense... if it doesn't work for you, he will steer you in the right direction.
