 Re: Backun Mouthpiece=Zinner Blanks
Author: Gregory Smith ★2017

The following is perhaps the most extensive and informative thread I've seen about the subject matter of this thread so far:

http://test.woodwind.org/clarinet/BBoard/read.html?f=1&i=210783&t=209993

also:

"...the so-called 'blanks' from the major mouthpiece makers (e.g. Babbitt, Zinner, perhaps Lelandais) are probably pretty darn close to playable 'as-received", if not completely playable, before the high-dollar guys even touch them."
______________________________________________________

Perhaps in other cases. Since I am not interested being broad-brushed into that category....not true in my case.

BTW, knowing that it is axiomatic as with any item, $$$ does not necessarily = quality, I'm not altogether sure who the so-called "high-dollar guys" are anymore.
