 Re: How can I choose between two excellent mouthpieces?

Yes, I have had my wife listen (she has very sensitive ears, particularly when it comes to the high notes! LOL). She also heard my dilemma, in that with the right reed, they both sound great. Tuning is about the same, although I haven't had the chance to examine the Grabner in as much detail as the Smith, which took some getting used to tuning-wise, mostly because I couldn't get it through my head that I really was playing in tune without pulling out quite a bit from two locations!

The Smith feels more focused, particularly in the lower registers, but it didn't until I hit on the right reed strength.
