Another question? I've been contemplating finding wooden mouthpieces to play on to test the sound and the response of them, but I'm not sure what would work best. On the Zinner website, they have Grenadilla mouthpieces, as well as Cocoswood (not too bright and not too warm?) and Cocobolo. Does anybody have experience with these mouthpieces or know a distributor for them in the states? Are they less durable? What do the different sidewalls do (i.e. Parallel vs Angled Sidewalls?) I want a pingy sound sometimes but a warm one primarily, so I'm considering the Cocoswood.
Currently I'm using the M13 Lyre as it gives me the greatest ease of playing. How would their 321*M compare? I don't have money to pay for multiple mouthpieces, and until I know a distributor in the US, I don't want to order any for trial.
I'm looking forward to your replies. Thanks.
Just an aspiring student.
