hahaha - One time Marcellus was playing on a crystal mouthpiece and Szell, the conductor told him not to use it for the recording coming up. Well Bob didn't know what to do so the night before the orchestra did the recording he painted the mouthpiece black. After the recording, at the airport, Szell went up to Marcellus and told him he can paint the mouthpiece any color he wants, but do not ever use it in my orchestra.

Long story short, Szell had a great ear. Maybe you can scratch off the name of the mouthpiece you like best with sandpaper, 400 grit should work, and if the teacher says anything, tell the teacher you were trying to clean it!  :) You just might get away with it, unless the teacher has ears like Szell!
