I just got a new-old-stock, unaltered Gigliotti P. Never had one before and it had a good price so went for it.
Based on this thread I expected the mouthpiece to be comfortable with 3.5 reeds in general, but I had to go down to blue box 3.
I measured it, and the tip is just above 0.94, the facing (rounded values, disregarding asymmetries) is: 31.5 (!), 21, 12-, 5
I knew the quality control was not that strict with these pieces, but holy cow. My biggest surprise was the facing length for sure.
Despite all of these, the mouthpiece has a good potential, so I will reface it to a more efficient curve.
