B+H 1010

I am using the original 1010 mouthpiece. You may remember my 1010 was made in 1981, and sat in the cupboard at a violin bow-maker, a friend of ours. It came with a 64 mm barrel, but we got a spare and had it shortened to 62 mm. I am now using Mitchell Lurie reeds with a B+G Ligature, which seems to have sharpened the sound, getting it back in tune.

I have played at least 20 1010's in my life as well as the model down the Imperial 926/925. I have never had a particular problem with the pitch on any of them. They were our stock instruments when I was in the Army and they played perfectly well in tune with the American flutes that were being used at the same time and also with the Selmer Paris saxophones!
