Re: Do mouthpieces wear out?

Perhaps though, we don't mean 'WORN OUT' as in completely useless or somehow less than playable. The wear that occurs will cause some degradation of sound compared to when there were "smarter" angles and curves on the mouthpiece in question.

As for me, the difference is being registered almost on a subconscious level and manifests itself as an emotional response from me, not one of "oh my gosh, suddenly this mouthpiece sounds horrible."

For what it's worth, this difference is more on the order of "what ligature do you prefer?" And I know we have a lot of "non-believers" on that one out there.
