"New" Grabner CXZ_Chicago

This week as I was browsing on Walter Grabner's Website, I noticed that he just started selling his new Kasper CXZ_Chicago made on a Zinner blank. I know most of you have heard about or played his excellent Kasper mouthpieces including the K11, K13, K14, and K2e, but this CXZ_Chicago is his latest version. This mouthpiece was developed in conjunction with several of the world's finest clarinetists, and is now being played by Larry Combs of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. When I spoke to Mr. Grabner personally, he told me that Larry Combs was looking for a mouthpiece to replace his Richard Hawkins "B Model mouthpiece", so now Mr. Combs plays on the CXZ_Chicago (Kasper Chicago) mouthpiece in the CSO and seems to me that obviously he enjoys it.

For months I have been searching for a top quality mouthpiece, and I think that his CXZ_Chicago mouthpiece will be amazing. I am expecting to receive two of them in the mail by the end of this week, and I know I want be dissapointed. These mouthpieces cost "$195.00" and if you contact Mr. Grabner, he can give you numerous details about this mouthpiece as well as others.
