I chimed in on this one before. ShawnBuck makes the point that these mouthpieces should be compared to themselves rather than a preconceived notion of the characteristics of H. Ched, C. Ched, or Kaspar. To this I heartily agree.

Chetclarinet is a well-respected pro who knows a good mouthpiece when he plays it. His endorsement is certainly a fine stamp of approval.

BUT...there are other fine makers out there, and you may find others to your liking. Some are denisons of this bulletin board.

One thing that seems very different between makers is the width of the rails and tip. Brad's are on the thinner side, while other producers like thicker ones. That is just one factor. I shudder to imaginge a math formula that encompasses all the nuances of mouthpiece acoustics.

And then you have to find a good reed........and practise!
