Hi Ken,

I went through 7 different mouthpieces with my clarinets over the past 9 years! Mostly wurlitzers,B4, D4, M5 K*...you get the picture I'm sure.

This 3WZ is best of all of them.
The facing and chamber are designed by Zeretske. You may not know that name. He is a mouthpiece maker/adjuster who lives in Berlin the last I heard.

Anyway, all of his work is handmade/finished. With this 3WZ the sound is fuller and rounder and has a lot of overtones. It helped also with the pitch center. a=440 on these instruments can be a challenge and this mouthpiece allows for quicker adjustment in ensemble work and is more even pitch-wise over the entire range of the instrument.

I like the Viottos also that you listed but they are hard to come by now it seems in this country.

Robert
