The Helleberg is a good 'ole trusty mouthpiece, most of the people on this board will agree go with what sounds the best but it's a pretty blanketing statement. I would switch between the Helleberg and the TU-29 and find which you like better. I'm not too fond of the Yamaha 67C4's so much so that I drill the throats out of them

. But, of course, that's
my opinion of them.

The yamaha "I" do not like but the miraphone TU29 is what I use so I am partial, of coarse you can never go wrong with the Helldeberg. Try them all and you decide

If you can't determine this for yourself, or with the help of a teacher, then use the Helleberg, sell the others, and spend the proceeds on your first lesson with a pro. Just one lesson, with careful implementation of what you learn, will provide more benefit than all the mouthpiece fiddling in the world.

At least it's not a Hellenberg!

I used to date a Helen Burgh.
She dumped me.
