Gonzalez makes a 2.75 reed that is very nice. Was just this morning reading Pamela Weston's "Clarinet Virtuosi of Today" and Stanley Drucker's wife Naomi used a B45 (at the time of Weston's interview). The B45 has a somewhat less focused, more robust, somewhat more plangent sound. If Wikipedia can be trusted, it was designed by Bernard Vandoren in the late 1960s and is Vandoren's most well-known mouthpiece.
