Earlier yesterday Alan was explaining to someone about how to measure to see if it is the right size, and mentioned something about Warren Deck using a Bach mouthpiece when designing the MW2000.
As far as the Thor I'm not sure, I should have asked him. I brought one back to try out for a couple of days. And now i'm kind of worried if my mouthpieces are the right fit for this horn. But i'm gonna do some of those measurements he was explaining to this guy yesterday.

What i found out is that my LM-4 shank in my opinion fits nice. And seems to fit right. My only problem is that it's a heavy wall and i according to my lessons teacher need a lighter weight mouthpiece. I have a dark sound heh. Love the Thor though.
