Some descriptive writing and heavy reliance on Amazon reviews.

"The Lyre 13 series is recommended for symphonic and chamber music playing, but it works well with harder reeds and players who wish to double and use the same mouthpiece for clarinet and saxophone."

How often is using the same mouthpiece for clarinet and saxophone done?

Well, as far as beginner mouthpieces go, my Hite Premiere runs circles around the recommended Yamaha 4C and Selmer Golden Tone and costs about the same. The most popular thing is not necessarily the best.

"Lightweight at only 2.4 ounces with a sleek design made of durable material, this bass clarinet mouthpiece has features that will make it worth the money to preserve and enhance the sound of intermediate and professional players."

I never though that I need to consider the weight of a MP when trying it.
The whole article seems like an advertisement for Amazon.
