Euph mouthpiece "softer" inner bite

Post by Tubaryan12 »

(I posted this on the Werden site and figured I should post here as well)

I'm looking for a new euphonium mouthpiece, large shank, between 25.80 - 25.90 mm inside diameter, and a softer inner bite with a rounder rim. I'm currently playing on a Giardinelli Symphony T. The rim is OK, but I'd like something with a slightly larger inside diameter than what I have. Please post your suggestions.

I have been happy with my GW Kadja, which is in that size range, and use a GW E-1, slightly larger at 26mm, as my main euph piece. Both have very comfortable bites and rounder rims for me.

Thanks guys. Keep 'em coming.
The DWerden sight has a mouthpiece chart...so finding size is easy. Finding the round rim and soft bite part is where I'm going to lean on you guys (and gals).
