Re: new mouthpiece recs?

It would be nice to know what specific problems you are encountering with your set up?...tuning issues and the like. As to changing mouthpiece every facing will have drawbacks and or advantages. The idea is to figure out technically what needs work in terms of technique and practice...is the set up you using imparing your development? A good teacher or your current instructor should be spoken with...it would be hard to idealize any set up because all of them have hidden problems..an open mouthpiece may not allow ease of articulation for some but help other players.

I think mouthpiece choice is the most personal and one should try many and therefore come away with what some may add and others leave out. A sudden shift to a facing that is very different from the current set up can be a disaster so don't be in a rush.
