Mouthpiece for Alexander 145 tenorhorn?

Post by Dan Bradley »

Hello,
I am borrowing an older Alexander 145 tenorhorn from a German band that I play with. It is a beautiful instrument, but the mouthpiece in the case seems to go in too far. It is tight, but it goes all the way in. Does anyone have any experience with this model where they can recommend a mouthpiece with the proper shank size? Or is it one of those things where the size has changed over the years, so it's hard to know?? Or is the mouthpiece supposed to go in that far?

I apologize for ending sentences with prepositions.

Thanks!,
Dan Bradley
