Hi Mani,

Welcome to the board. If you are looking at the Fobes San Francisco go with the CF plus facing and try a few out to see how you like it. I have one and it really reed friendly. I would not go with the Gigliotti simply because he passed a long time ago and quality control is not good. Since you have an M15 then I would definitely reach out to Greg Smith and audition some of his Old Chedeville style facing. I currently play on his 1+ facing. He is really genuine in his approach to your needs. Both Smith and Fobes make their mouthpieces to play with v12 3.5 and 4 and or equivalent. I would go on to say that you can probably even play the v12 3 as I have in the past with splendid results. Its Christmas time go for it and have fun😄.
