Re: oversize euphonium mouthpieces for tuba players
I got a hold of a Lehman M model mouthpiece that is pretty large that I like. Problem is they haven't made them in years and they are very hard to find, and people that have them don't like to give them up.

I use my lehman mouthpiece on euphonium when I'm working out a bass trombone thing. It is pretty huge. but you can make it sound good.

Re: oversize euphonium mouthpieces for tuba players
I really like the Josef Klier contra mouthpieces for stuff like this. The 2C rocks in my Getzen bass trombone and my 2A (Kanstul, was told it's a copy of the JK 2A) has become my choice for low euph/mini tuba playing. I think they were about fifty bucks from Dillon's when I bought them about five years ago. I don't have any experience with any other makes of contra mps.
