Re: Loudest mouthpiece you've played

Oops - I meant Dukoff Silverite and not Metallite back there.

The Rico Metallites also benefit from refacing as the tables on them weren't flat either. They were by far the cheapest mouthpieces back in the day from a big name company. I think a lot of people were put off by the grey plastic which did look odd, but then again, Dukoff Silvereites turned dull grey very quickly too.

I used a Dukoff Silverite D8 on bari, but removed most of the baffle as the low notes were tricky with such a built-up chamber. And again I ditched the D8 bari one for a stainless steel Lawton 7*BB which I still use.
