Clark Fobes is clearly a master artisan and artist. This has been posted before on this forum. But I couldn't find anything posted directly about the Fobes CWF since 2016, and I just wanted to add my accolades!
As a member of the CLC Wind Symphony in Minnesota, I debuted his mouthpiece in our rehearsal last evening. It performed beautifully.
Of note were the following characteristics on my Buffet R-13:
*Terrific Tone Quality in Chalumeau, Clarion, & Altissimo
*Fantastic Intonation
*Ease of Articulation
*Wonderful Balance and Blend with Others
*Free Blowing at All Dynamic Levels from pp to ff, with Expanded Crescendos & Decrescendos.
I use a Bonade Inverted Ligature with my R-13, and Vandoren V-12 3.5 reeds. I'll definitely try out Rue Lepic, as a good friend of mine recommended that!
Truly curious about your experiences with Clark's Mouthpieces. I must say that as one of the last Zinner Blanks, this really plays itself. And Clark is first-class as always in my dealings with him. Incredibly friendly and available for e-mail connection !
