Re: A Dan Leeson-esque question

When I found my present mouthpiece about 20 years ago, it's a very old Morgan, one of his very first, I loved the sound so I decided to buy it but had a very difficult time making a reed for it. It was a time I made my own. I put it way for a while but came back to it in about a month becuase I loved the tone. I spent a week learning how to make my reeds to fit the mouthpiece and I've never looked back. When I switched to Rico Grand Concert Thick Blanks it because very easy to match a reed to it because by that time, several years, I was so used to the Morgan I felt very comfortable with it. So what I'm saying is that if you find a mouthpiece that gives you something special you need to find a way to adjust your reeds to it. If you can't, than it's not so special.
