Re: Backun Signature Clarinet Mouthpiece

Oops,

That leaves the query about the A-Frame Baffle unanswered. I guess that it is reasonable to claim A-Frame Baffle since the baffle is enlarged going through the tone chamber.

A further clarification about the response of the Zinner A-Model is that the "problem" that I was having with the Fobes mouthpieces as I tried them seemed to me to just be an issue with the facing not lining up with my expectations. That's how it felt, yet Clark had imposed the precise dimensions from a old Hawkins that I have. The mouthpiece became a whole new animal once he used those facing dimensions on an A-Model copy that he has. It was quite informative to find that a baffle difference could make that big a difference in HOW the mouthpiece played!
