There has for a long time been banter on "materials" for things involving the Clarinet from the Clarinet to Mouthpiece to Lig, etc.
I now have the Silverstein Maestro in both Solid Rose Gold, and Solid 10K Gold.
It is the metal part that touches the back of the Mouthpiece, and the 2 resonating bars on the side.
Dimensions are exactly the same, tension the same, position of the reed the same, bars positioned identically:
Would there be a sound difference from one to another?
Would the player feel any difference, or not?
If a player had no clue which one cost more, etc, would a player feel that they both are identical as to how they sound, and feel?
I'm a Silverstein Artist *BG also*, and NOT trying to get anyone to order one, as they are a fortune, and primarily for his Artists.
But is a very good comparison of strictly materials.
I had 5 students try both who ranged from 10th grade to 67 years old (he made All State NY in HS, but an Amateur player). I told them nothing about either one of them.
Thoughts and speculations please:
