thanks for the info, GBK. I've been playing on one I got direct from him in 1993 or so, an 11, and have been thinking I ought to get another like it as a backup, since it's my only "using" mouthpiece and everything else I've got in the drawer is miscellaneous Vandoren garbage that sounded good in the tryout room, and awful once I got them home (which is what prompted me to order from Borbeck in the first place).
Was he able to reference your old one, either thru records or memory? Was the new one "right" the first time, or did you have to send it back for tweaks? And, if you don't mind, what descriptors did you use to explain what you were looking for (how you wanted the new mp to differ from the old one, overall qualities you were looking for, etc.)?
