How about a new rubber clarinet? From a "vintage" formula?

Author: sfalexi

Just doing some thinking. I know a few people/companies have gone through some pains and lengths to create or "recreate" the same rubber formula which made the old chedeville mouthpieces so sought after.

Now if this rubber does produce such a great sound, what would happen if a clarinet were made of it? I know the vito reso-tone and Ridenour clarinets are hard rubber. And a few other companies are experimenting with different non-wood materials (took a look at Hanson's website today to see they have a new material out, as do the Leblanc/Backun BLISS clarinets).

And I thought, 'If this material is supposed to be the difference between a great sounding mouthpiece and a good sounding mouthpiece with the same facing, what would a whole clarinet sound like made out of this material......?'

Just doing some thinking......
