Hi all,
I was in contact with Kyle Pyne. She was very helpful, and patient with me. (I can be a pain.) The letter designations on the Signature line of mouthpieces denote different bore tapers to give different tonal characteristics to the sound. It is best to hear /try them yourself to determine which one suites your needs.
That being said; I was provided with a list of dealers that not only stock Pyne mouthpieces but also have a "Try before you Buy" option. I have shared this list with all.
The Woodwind Brasswind: 1-800-348-5003
International Musical Suppliers: 1-800-762-1116
Fred Weiner Music: 1-800-622-CORK
Phil Muncy Winds: 1-800-333-6415
They are listed according to stock. WWBW tends to stock the most, Muncy,
the least.
Best Regards to All
Mark

Pyne mouthpieces are the best I have ever played on--great depth of sound and very dark. However, be prepared for a hunt to find the right one for you. It took me a year to find mine. At times it was very frustrating, but the end result was awesome. My teacher has a "magic" one. She's been trying for years to find one like it without any success. Also, they are very reed fickle. I use 3.5 V12s and they work great, but only 3 out of 10 work on it. With all this said, the Pyne mouthpiece is amazing.
