Re: Tiny nick on mouthpiece

I'm with Paul on this one. Once you've seen a master craftsperson do delicate (one VERY soft swipe with VERY fine sandpaper) work on a mouthpiece and then heard and felt the VERY specific change in how it plays, you treat these things with the respect they deserve if they are special to you. If you want to experiment go for it, but do it knowing that the results are likely to be something other than what you might hope, and that there's a fair chance of spoiling what you liked about that mouthpiece. Yes location on the piece matters quite a bit, and if you are not an accomplished player you might not notice some changes, but it's your call ultimately to chose wisely.
