Funny, I've been telling people on this Board since the August ClarinetFest that the new Selmer was a very good mouthpiece. It can actually get even better Ray. It's the best commercial mouthpiece on the market right now. I still think it is stuffy though. But with some work it can be an amazing mouthpiece. It beats out anything on the market today at $100.
I've been toying with buying some and fixing them, then selling them for $145.
Maybe fix them for $50 and ship them back to the player and it includes shipping; so $45 for the labor.
Haven't made up my mind yet. If people are interested email me. They will play just like the old Chedeville's or very close to it, as very few Chedevilles played the exact same. That's how good they can be in the hands of the right person. In the hands of the wrong person, well throw them out. A hint, it's not in the facing, so don't have them refaced. If you do throw them out because they may become more resistant. So I have to keep the stuffiness/resistance to freeness and freedom a secret.
