I think most bass clarinet mouthpieces need to be opened a bit. The upper register sure plays better. Depending on the MP's look for a more open one. Some may think I'm out of my mind. Thats a topic for another post!

Heres my reasoning. The bass clarinet reeds are cut shorter.The bark length only. The vamp cut is the same as the sax line. Thats the ONLY difference Rico does. How do I know that? I set up the machines. So since the reeds are made for sax it seems natural to use a wider, more open facing on the bass clarinet MP. You must work with someone that knows how to reface these MP's.
