When I was growing up (purportedly) here on the Right Coast, Brilhart mouthpieces were considered student or marching mouthpieces ---- serious players didn't use them. Not my opinion, just an observation. They were basically just cheap white plastic mouthpieces, though probably better than most other cheap student mouthpieces. The current rage over them is probably a fad, like the Selmer Mark 6 sax fad, like the Chedeville/Lelandais/Kaspar/Bay mouthpiece fad, etc. etc. Eventually people will see these things for what they're worth FUNCTIONALLY (maybe!!). Until then, by all means talk endlessly about them and spend huge amounts of money on them --- helps stimulate both the conversation and the economy.
