 Re: Mouthpiece and legere reeds
Author: Paul Aviles

I wanted to add that I have been playing a couple of Clark Fobes mouthpieces for the last few weeks that produce stunning results with the Legere European Signature reeds. The sound is not only cane like, but it has an overtone rich sound that allows a projection through an ensemble when necessary.


Mr. Fobes made the order process (and return if it came to that) a pleasure. I made things more challenging by requesting a customization to shorten the lay by two millimeters (something that many mouthpiece makers would not entertain). That request was not a problem for Clark.


The result was a mouthpiece that matched the two major dimensions of a Grabner that I currently played. Interestingly, the result was a mouthpiece that played just as I hoped, with no changes of embouchure, air pressure or reed necessary. Who would have thought? It really just comes down to differences in SOUND. This sort of result allows ME to chose what mouthpiece is best for the prevailing circumstances.


It's wonderfully helpful to have the two basic dimensions available from the mouthpiece maker such as what Clark Fobes provides on his website:

It takes the mystery out of finding the right mouthpiece.
