I recently acquired a German system Fritz Wurlitzer clarinet from around 1940 and it came with one of the old wooden Uebel mouthpieces mentioned above. I was disappointed to find my favorite Wurlitzer mouthpiece would not fit, however I learned after some measuring that the Uebel mouthpiece had almost the exact dimensions of a French mouthpiece. This is strange because it was German in every other respect with groves for a string ligature and a long close facing. Knowing that I threw on a B45 and it played very well in tune up and down the scale.

Given this I would suggest anyone struggling to find a mouthpiece for these older German clarinets try some French mouthpieces.
