RE: Mouthpieces

Don has pretty well described the differences. However there did indeed used to be a 2RV. It was the predecessor of the 5RV and as such should be quite similar in characteristics.

Basically both are good mouthpieces. Neither is "better" than the other. They are designed for different characteristics. In addition to Don's comments, I find that I can get more volume out of the B45. So I use it for outdoor concerts. I can get a good classical tone out of either on but as Don noted, it takes more control on the part of the player when using the B45. So for more classically oriented concert band events, I use the 5RV.
