Bill: I wonder what the ultimate outcome of your mouthpiece quest was if you don't mind my asking. I have recently bought a fairly old Adler, not sure how old (I can't see anything online about Adler serial numbers, I might just ask them) and it too has a Lebü mouthpiece. It's ok but it's a bit on the worn side and I will consider replacing it at some stage. It's also quite narrow which means none of my ligatures really fit very well. It came with a Zinner basic metal one that's clearly not original, but even fully tightened it's on the loose side, and nothing else I have will hold the reed properly at all. I do have some chords and I think I'm simply going to have to work on learning to tie the reed on for the time being.
My Lebü has a number 24 and letters D.R.G.M. stamped on it, I have no idea what they refer to. The whole mouthpiece is shorter than a Yamaha M3D so not what I would call super-long, so probably not the same model as you have.
Many thanks - Paul
