Re: German mouthpiece facings

Author: Chris Sereque

I have a few Vandoren “D” style German mouthpieces-they tune decently, but originally the tenons were around .5 mm too long. They are easily shortened with sandpaper. I would have thought that the tenons would be too wide for a Buffet, but they fit perfectly. The facings are designed for German players who want to play with French reeds (??), but they play better with longer facings. I do my own mouthpiece work, but maybe I should actually buy a German-facing mouthpiece…
