My first bass mouthpiece was a Selmer C** which I won my job in Baltimore on and continued to play for about 40 some years. It was right out of stock, never been touched and I loved it. Then I tried a Selmer C* that was "touched" up, voiced he calls it, by Davd McClune and I switched on a dime. I've been using that now for about 7-8 years. My back up is a Fobes RR facing MP which plays almost excatly like my Selmer C*. When I taught at Peabody I always recommended a student try 3 or 4 C* because I played several of them that played very well without being touched up but they are inconsistant so you have to try several to find the right one. If that didn't work I suggested trying several other fine MPs on my list or sending the best C* to Dave to be voiced better. We all have our own prefences and there are many good ones on the market today. But you have to try them out to find the best fit for you. ESP
