I originally posted about this mouthpiece here: http://test.woodwind.org/clarinet/BBoard/read.html?f=1&i=470556&t=470556
So I received the mouthpiece and tried to play it, but because the cork is worn I was only able to play it in the clarion register. It sounded quite good, definitely something I could keep as at least a backup.
A refacer who wishes to remain anonymous contacted me and said it is a fine example and good vintage, but clearly needs some restoration, polishing and facing.
If I decide to have it restored what do refacers do to get it into top condition? Do they restore it to be like it was when it was new i.e. everything about the original design preserved, or do they modify it to make it "better"?
