Absolutely concur, seabreeze. There are numerous pics of Artie that clearly show him playing on a Brilhart Ebolin, yet there are also many pics that show the mouthpiece to be missing that telltale white bite plate. If those 'pieces are just other Brilhart models, I'm not sure we'll ever know. I'm also not sure he ever actually played the Artie Shaw Model that Brilhart made for him that was sold commercially for a short time in the early 40's.
I also agree that Artie certainly could've "planted" that mouthpiece in the case with the two clarinets he donated to the Smithsonian. I wish I could go back in time and ask him point blank what mouthpieces he played on. Alas....
Thanks for the info!
John
