comparing a Conn 120 to a Sidey SSH II

Post by TubaBobH »

My Conn 120s is one of my two "go to" mouthpieces with my King 1241. I would like to find a stainless steel version of my Conn 120 with a similar cup diameter (as close to 32.5mm as possible). The Sidey SSH II, with its 32.6mm cup diameter, looks as though it may be worth a try, although its throat seems to be somewhat larger than a Conn 120.

Does anyone have experience with both the SSH II and the Conn 120? Similarities? Differences?

Thanks
