Just a note to let everyone know that Luis Rossi is now creating mouthpieces from blanks made by Saluzzi in Argentina.
They haven't been advertised yet, other than on Luis's site.

Bruce -
Would you please post a link to the page on his website mentioning these blanks? I was not able to find the blank (or any mouthpieces) mentioned anywhere on his site.
Thanks,
Gregory Smith

The only mention I see of the mouthpiece is here: http://www.rossiclarinet.com/english-site/centro-ingles.htm and that only lists the price.It'sunder the ACCESSORIES link.

Yes, right now there isn't much information on his site.
I wrote to Luis this evening asking for more details, and I'll post his response here when he replies.
Here is his last post to me regarding them:
Dear Bruce,
the blank is made by Salluzzi, a mouthpiece maker from Argentina. He makes his own ebonita, so it totally different to everything else in the market.
This model works with a long lay and wide tip opening, which gives lots of freedom, big round tone, good articulation and good control.
All the best,
Luis
I can tell you, from my own experience playing five of these mouthpieces, that they were very consistent between them, and that his description of the playing qualities are accurate, IMO. I have always been one to really "push" a mouthpiece, and I felt well in control with these, regardless of the dynamic level, articulation style, or range played in. (Security is very important to me because of an injury long ago that makes it very difficult for me to maintain a perfectly symmetrical embouchure at the corners.)
