 Re: The Downside of Light Reeds

Also all the Vandoren German mouthpieces can be fitted to a French barrel socket (surely also their Viennese one, but haven't tried it myself), since the tenons themselves aren't too wide for that. The tenon cork will compress enough to allow a fit - with lots of cork grease. After a few fittings though the cork will have compressed too much to still give a tight fit on a German barrel, so in that case the cork needs to be renewed.

Still the tenons on German/Austrian mouthpieces are about 1mm longer than on French ones, so there will be a visible gap of that size between such a mouthpiece and a French barrel (can't however see that on Donalds photo above, so either the socket on that barrel is deeper than usual or the tenons on the mouthpieces are shorter than usual).

As also Donald says, on some German/Austrian mouthpieces the tenons themselves (apart from the tenon cork) are too wide to fit a French barrel.
