I thought it was quite good that Brad Behn stated on his website that his mouthpieces were "inspired" by the designs of Kaspar and Chedeville- on his older website he actually discussed elements of design in the various blanks he made, and how they related to classic mouthpieces. Whether this was in response to the threat of legal action or not I have no idea, but it was an honest and thoughtful move which certainly made it clear he was NOT claiming his mouthpieces were exact copies etc etc.

btw- I have not played one of Dr Hendersons mouthpieces, or one of the Firebird mouthpieces made from these blanks by Mike Lomax, but did have the pleasure of playing a Kanter mouthpiece owned by a Danish pro player just last week. It had a presence, and resonance, in the sound that did not come at the expense of losing "body" (as can easily happen when brightness is created/increased by a closer baffle with no lateral concavity) and sounded GREAT. Mr Kanter had created this mouthpiece from one of Dr Hendersons mouthpiece blanks.
