Has anyone tried these yet? Saw them at weiner for 375 or so. Just wondering if they are good or just relying on using the "ch. chedeville" engraving to sell.

Last I knew, I believe Guy Chadash was making these blanks for them. You would be better off getting a mouthpiece from Chris Hill, who uses the Chadash blanks. You could get a mouthpiece tweaked for your own preferences. Chris is excellent and easy to work with.

I believe Chris Hill faced them for Glotin and some of them were very good. Chris Hill reads these so he can give you a conformation of that. ESP http://eddiesclarinet.com

Ed is right; I did make them. Unfortunately, Glotin clarinet products are no longer available, so Weiner must have one of the few rare ones that are left (I only made 168 of them to begin with.)
If you buy one, I'd be happy to tweak it for you the next time I am at Guy's for no additional charge.
BTW, I forgot to save one for Guy, who has a collection of every vintage of Chedeville EXCEPT for the ones we made, so if anyone would like to trade me a Glotin Chedeville for one with the Chadash-Hill insignia, I'd be grateful!
He does have one from that vintage with our insignia, but he wants one that says Chedeville.

Thanks for the information. I have several ch. chedeville mouthpieces that have been reworked (selling a few at the moment), one of which is my main mouthpiece. If I come across some extra cash soon I'll splurge on one of these mouthpieces and contact you Chris.
Thanks!
