Hawkins B, R or G?

Author: ClariLaur

I recently lucked into acquiring a Kaspar Cicero 13 E-flat mouthpiece, but I may have to trade my Fobes San Fran mouthpiece as part of the deal. The Kaspar plays beautifully & lightly up in the stratosphere, while I always struggled with the Fobes.

So, I'm wondering if anyone has experience with the Hawkins "B" E-flat mouthpiece or another that they would highly recommend? (when I'm not playing the Kaspar)

Second question: has anyone tried all three of the Hawkins models? I'm a current "R" user & although I love it, wonder how the "B" or newer "G" might change my sound & focus. I will likely do a test on them, but was hoping to get some responses before bringing in a boatload of choices! I currently pay in a symphonic band, although get orchestra sub jobs occasionally.

Thank you for your feedback!
