@ Paul re: "Lastly the tenon of a German mouthpiece is about 1.00mm larger in diameter and 1.00 longer than their Boehm counterpart. So a non-modified German mouthpiece will NOT fit into a Boehm barrel and conversely, a Boehm mouthpiece will "rattle around" in a German barrel."
That's strange because I bought a secondhand Albert C clarinet last year whose barrel is fitted for a Boehm mouthpiece but the vender included a German mouthpiece (maybe thinking Albert fingering = German), which doesn't fit (tenon too small) while Boehm does. Meanwhile my Yamaha 4C fits fine.
The thing I found with this German mouthpiece is it doesn't work well with a Boehm ligature, because it's narrower design for string wrapping.
