 Re: Bass clarinet MP to contra alto adapter?

I am not sure that this contraption yields better results than a genuine EEb mouthpiece. It's not just the bore diameter, it's also the mouthpiece chamber volume, the size of the reed etc.

I did some experimenting in your direction as well (testing a metal Leblanc EEb) and I constantly overblew into the upper register with my standard bass piece.

I bought a Fobes Debut BBb Contrabass mouthpiece (the Leblanc receiver has BBb size).
