Re: How to test a mouthpiece?

Wow thanks everyone! Ed, thanks for that link. It gives me a "method" to follow which is very helpful!

Roxann, could you share which web site you bought your mouthpiece from, that lets people send the ones they don't want back?

My current list of possibles are:

B40 Lyre Profile 88 13 series (American pitch)
M30 Lyre Profile 88
M15 Profile 88
5RV Lyre Traditional

For the purpose of not scratching a trial mouthpiece, I am guessing that I should not use my Vandoren Optimum ligature because it's metal and may scratch.

While we're at it, which ligature should I try? There are so many out there it's quite confusing: Vandoren leather, Rovner 1R, Rovner Versa, Rovner Versa X...
