 Re: Time to "get use to" a new mouthpiece?

Given no local store with a decent selection of mouthpieces, you order online (such as Woodwind Brasswind - great prices). I would suggest Vandoren mouthpieces for several reasons:

ONE: they are consistent in quality and are very good

TWO: they have a well publicized mouthpiece sizing chart and many to choose from

THREE: once you get used to a certain dimension you will be able to make some judgements about moving from there based on the chart

FOUR: many of us at all levels of play use them



I suggest starting with an M13 (not the one with the Lyre designation; Profile 88 is fine, it is just smaller feeling in the mouth). It will play MUCH better than a used Selmer HS*.
