Yamaha Signature vs Yamaha Replica

Post by quinterbourne »

Is the only difference betwen these mouthpieces (besides the $150 price difference) the plating?

Signature = gold plated = $218
Replica = silver plated = $62.50

...and most OEM gold plating is pretty thin. Buy the silver and have the rim plated yourself.
