 Re: How far should you bite on the mouthpiece?

Dear Chris,


Thanks for saying, "never bite." Never, never EVER even think of biting.

Now that's cleared up, I saw a good suggestion earlier on this forum to choke up on it until you hear a squeak, then just back off slightly from that spot. Generally the longer the lay, the more mouthpiece one will take in. That would explain the desire to have more mouthpiece for a German horn since those mouthpieces are of a smaller tip openning and a longer lay.
