i always picked mouthpieces with a vandoren 3 1/2 strength.

even other commercial reeds work that way, so you will have one less variable.

also, pick a mouthpiece that you can get through a concerto with.

and that floats the open g without much pressure from your lips. be able to glide up to high e with little effort.

the b40 lyre is also great with the v-12 3.5---try them with that strength of reed.
the reed determines everything!

pick a mouthpiece that does everything ok. that "special sounding " mouthpiece is generally just good for one thing....
