Has anyone tried the new Buffet Icon mouthpiece that comes in two versions? Also has anyone tried the new ligature from Buffet?

All I know is the tip openings are very open and slightly bright sounding. Very French sounding.

Bob: No clarinet manufacturer has ever produced a half-way decent clarinet mouthpiece. Maybe one exception: the Leblanc 4L mouthpiece. It wasn't so bad-as good as, let's say a Vandoren B45. I wonder if there are still any around. We tried to make a mouthpiece-a wooden one- and all of ours went straight into the very bottom of the garbage can or were used for fire wood;

I'd be interested too however is this out in the wild yet? I certainly haven't seen it available anywhere.

I played one. The rep couldn't confirm, but it looks like a schreiber product. Plastic, not hard rubber, but, like the bass mouthpieces, a well made piece. Very easy to play and responsive. I would guess that the people who like similar plastic mouthpieces will like this one.
