Re: Mouthpiece cushions, ( or the lack thereof )

The most obvious reason is that your upper teeth can damage the mouthpiece if you play single lip.

but even if you play double lip, some find that it also dampens out the vibrations. some say it gives a warmer sound. others say its more comfortable.

I don't think there's anything wrong with not using one.
