Re: Brad Behn vintage review

Today I received a parcel with mouthpieces from Brad Behn.

Shipping included three of my old mouthpiece, which I sent Brad to do the reface work and a one new mouthpiece of his Vintage Collection. This new Vintage Collection - Brad designed and made especially for me.

I sit and cry with happiness - this magic work, I had never seen until now.
Maybe I did not see that in general in this sense - but still want to say a few kind words.

All three of the mouthpiece, which I sent him to reface, all alive at his touch - they have become quite different.

I'll take any reed - take on - and it sings! Although the 2.5 - 4.0 at least - play on the health on what your heart desires - all are singing.

As for the new Vintage - it's a miracle!
Such a resonance and a range of colors of sound is difficult to imagine ...
And it's an instant response and a very nice tactile feel of the play on it.

I have no words to convey my feelings.
Of course, I still need a lot of time to properly adjust and realize for myself all the delights of this master, which I now hold in my hands already.
But what I saw today - tells me a lot.

Thank you, Brad! You are a true magician!

I highly recommend - call to mr. Bradford Behn to anyone who wants to get the mouthpiece to the quality of individual work extra-class, world-class.
Master not only guarantees the highest level of performance, but also completely individual approach to reface your old mouthpiece
and construction a mouthpiece specially for you to order.
It is impossible to overestimate his attentive, kind and warm attitude to each client personally.

Half a day could not tear myself away from the clarinet.

All tried and went through - still no tuner and no special care.
Just caught the buzz of sensations at different long notes and the sound.

Vintage Collection by Bradford Behn - it is a magic mps - no words!!!
Otherwise, you could not tell.
The Vintage mouthpiece is so easy to play and sing its own song.
Any efforts are not necessary - the sound is taken freely and easily.

No wonder the master himself suggests in the transition to put the reed weaker one which are used to Vintage .
Stunning resonance characteristics of the material and mps makers work can play it quite easily and without straining compared with the mps, which I've tried before -
they had to create a lot of extra effort.
After Brad reface completed my three mps to play on them has become much easier to and more pleasant - and in terms of the attack and in terms of general sound and tactile sensations.
And perhaps because the strain ceased (where not necessary) - it became easier and smoother to breathe ...

It remains to once again wonder: how everything is interconnected in a complex instrument.

Half a day playing - until it got dark - (decided by the night to honor peace of neighbors)
and no straining at all, and never feel any fatigue -
a continuous delight, the ecstasy turns into no-violent insanity, and fun ...

Bravo, Mr. Bradford Behn!
Such a miracle, I've never seen before ...

Disclaimer: I have no business contact with Brad other than being a very satisfied customer

Sorry, my English is so bad :(
