No this isn't the one. The Miraphone model is based on the first version of the G&W Alan Baer model. This is the newest model and not a Miraphone. But thanks for keeping an eye out for it!
All the best.

Aw man. I feel like an idiot now. I'm sorry guys :oops: but the mouthpiece stolen wasn't a Giddings and Webster. It's a Miraphone. Mine is all legit... and a great deal!

This really stinks, and it's always some punk kid who has the money to buy a good mouthpiece but feels the need to steal something instead. I haven't been to a single TMEA event yet where someone hasn't reported a mouthpiece being stolen. I hope you're able to recover your mouthpiece Roger.

Yes, that is the style of the mouthpiece, but this is a legitimate seller. None of ours were in a box. They were in the mouthpiece case we bring to every event. Don't be afraid to buy this mouthpiece as it is obviously legitimate.

Thanks for checking.

Had this happen one time at my booth at the Army Conference a number of years ago. I believe Dillon Music had a tuba stolen at the same time. I feel your pain.

I hope the mouthpiece turns up, Roger.

Roger, as you know I have one of these but don't use the leadpipe that it fits very often (almost never). Let me know it you need it and we can see what we can work out. I hope everything else is going well, Phil
