If the good price means that you can't return it, then I wouldn't recommend it, unless the price is $100 or less. If you can return it, then there's no harm in trying. I'm sure there are people who like them. I tried a bunch at the showroom in Paris and found them to be rather resistant for the amount of sound produced. I like old C*s, personally. All mouthpieces are inconsistent to some degree, so it would be hard to pick any one as a foolproof recommendation. But sometimes you must. The Schreibers that come with the Buffet Prestige bass are pretty consistent, and not a bad mouthpiece, though they won't please the "more open is better" player. Weiner has them, I think they're less than $100; I played one for a number of years. Plastic, but that doesn't seem to be as bad as you'd think. Selmer C85/115s are also fairly consistent, and more in line with what I like than Vandorens or Zinner-based pieces, though those certainly have their fans. Almost any mouthpiece has somebody who sounds fantastic on it and says it's the best thing ever.
