Does anyone know of the mouthpiece facing length, tip opening, bore size etc, of the "gigliotti 3?" On the mouthpiece it has the gigliotti logo on the back, then a very small "three"on the bottom to the right of the table. I want to buy a new mouthpiece, but I don't know what types matche my current gigliotti.

They varied, because they were machine made. If you wish, send it to me and I can measure it at no charge.
Babbitt made them, but the Gigliotti family is in a family lawsuit that may never be settled, so it is unsure if the mouthpieces will ever become available again. Something about his wife against his kids I think. I can't remember the exact problem, but it's not pretty.

Knowing the measurement may be a start but it won't matter anyway. Every single mouthpiece, even of the same make and model, will play differently. Many times not even close to each other.
