Leblanc Mouthpieces on Buffet R-13s?

Author: clarinetgirl09

Have any of you ever played an Eddie Daniels mouthpiece (made by Leblanc) on a Buffet R-13?
I need a backup mouthpiece for my Pomarico Crystal Emerald M, and I was interested in the ED mouthpiece. And if any of you have done this, what did you think of the combination, or the mouthpiece in general?

Any information would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

My teacher has an Eddie Daniels (w/accompanying Rovner ED ligature) on his R-13.

Can't tell you about the touch&feel, but he definitely sounds better than I do.

Thanks for your reply. I have played the ED ll ligature, and loved it. I can't really find all that much information on the mouthpiece..except that many professionals love it. I can't find the tip openning of it (But I expect it's a closed tipped mouthpiece for Eddie Daniels uses a 4 V12, and it probably has a longer facing, or reed table), or the curve length, but it must have a large chamber and bore for him to play jazz with it, as well...not to mention the fact that he is a fabulous clarinetist...and could probably do that anyways.
I just wasn't too sure whether or not this mouthpiece was made specifically for Leblanc clarinets (for intonation reasons regarding the tenencies of the instruments made from that company).

Any more information would be greatly appreciated! (If I am wrong with any of my thoughts, I am sorry...But I think I'm close in reasoning).

All I can say is try it next to a tuner and see what you think. Also, judge it by the way it sounds. If you like it and if it is in tune, keep it and use it. It's hard to say about things like that.
