Re: mouthpiece/ligature for beginner

I would never recommend the Morgan Protone as a beginning mouthpiece. With a 0.045" tip opening and a facing length of 32 (16mm), for me this was a very resistant mouthpiece to play.

The Fobes Debut, on the other hand, has a 0.039" tip opening and a slightly longer facing of 34 (17mm) which, IMHO, makes it a far easier mouthpiece to play.

I've played then both and the Fobes Debut won easily.
