I'm not sure what he previous (now deleted) message adds to the thread!

But it's resurrection does give me a chance to say that I have recently been using a Vandoren Austrian mouthpiece bored out to B&H 1010 specs on Peter Eaton Elites. The lay is 0.80mm by 30mm.

The combination is superb for me. The intonation of a modern Boehm clarinet plus the resonant but balanced capabilities of an Oehler or reform-Boehm system.

Maybe it is a wide bore thing, the Austrian mouthpiece works much better than the several German mouthpieces that Peter has previously adapted for me (mostly Zinners and Leitner & Krauss).

It is an advantage of the 15.24mm bore that just about any Bb mouthpiece can be adapted. Sadly the skills seem to be gradually disappearing.

Truthfully, I haven't stopped smiling for the last month!
