The best clarinet players in the world, the ones whose sounds I love, have mouthpiece tip openings that range from 1.01 (something like a M13), to 1.12 (Kaspar or Kaspar inspired) to 1.20. These artists play on M13, M15, B40, Chedevilles, Bettoneys, Kaspars, Selmers, Bakuns, and a plethora of other mouthpieces. Some have been refaced by several different mouthpiece refacers, some have not. Ergo, it isn't the mouthpiece that gives you the tone. Get the best teacher, listen to recordings of great clarinetists, and get your @%& in the practice room with your ears open.
