Miraphone Rose Orch. vs Wick 1L
Posted: Mon Mar 05, 2007 11:15 pm
These are two very similar mouthpieces. I physically compared my Wick 1 to my section mate's Miraphone Rose Orch., and they look very similar in cup geometry. However, the Rose definitely has a smaller throat, and it's difficult to compare backbores. Rehearsal ran late, so I didn't get to try it out.
Has anyone played both and can give a comparison? With my Wick 1 being the small shank, I will probably be needing to purchase a "regular" shank mouthpiece in the near future, and these two have my attention, especially since I'm familiar with the Wick.
Just for comparison to those who have not seen or played either of them, they are both similar, but their cups are a hair wider in diameter and both are deeper than a new Conn 120 Helleberg which I tried out at my local music store last week.
Thanks.
