Large Bore Selmers and Modern Mouthpieces

Author: ghuba

In another thread on Selmer Series 9 clarinets, it has been pointed out that Selmer Big Bore clarinets -- K, L, M, N, BT, CT, Omega CT, 9 series -- may have much more even and intune scales with mouthpieces of the same era designed for the larger bore sizes Selmer [and others] used in the 1920s through 1960s.

Does anyone have any experience attempting to match modern mouthpieces specifically designed for bigger bore clarinets -- the Peter Eaton comes to mind but there might be many others -- to these older big bore Selmer and Leblanc clarinets?

George
