Re: Hite vs Fobes beginner mouthpiece.

Both are fine. For some people one might be better than the other, which one depends on the player (and possibly the specific mouthpieces). For some people one might not be better than the other. Clarinet mouthpiece by both of those companies that I've tried seemed very similar. However tenor saxophone mouthpiece that I have both Fobes Debut and Hite Premiere is a huge difference. The Hite is much more open, the tone and response are different. I prefer the Hite by far but would choose the Fobes for a beginner for easier response. I'm not sure if it's just the way these mouthpiece are for saxophones or they are not too consistent so this can happen with clarinet mouthpieces too. I haven't tried enough of them for the same instrument to know.
