 Re: More open mouthpieces

I use a Vandoren BD5 with 3,5 V21 reeds. A lot of people have trouble with open mouthpieces wearing out their embouchure. But I find that if you have the proper amount of reed in your mouth, which usually means more that what people naturally do, then your air support becomes more of a factor than embouchure pressure.

In the past I’ve used a B40 with Traditional reeds, sometimes V12. That’s even more open. It requires more work and control of your air support to have a focused sound but getting a full and deep sound comes much more naturally.
