Amazing!

[The Big Ben]

I received a new Conn Helleburg mouthpiece in the mail yesterday and I got a surprise. A happy surprise....

There was a sticker that said "Made in Germany" on the little bag containing the mouthpiece.

Amazing! I thought the cyborg sent all that sort of thing offshore...

Newsflash, that is offshore...

Okay, the little bag was made in Germany. Where was the mouthpiece made?

Good question. There are two stickers on the bag and the bag is sealed. The box, brush and blue plastic case have no statement of origin.

I wonder if Bach mouthpieces will follow...

'Must be because no one in the US knows how to machine a mouthpiece economically.

Ah! China must have a town named "Gemany"...

China might be well served by locating a manufacturing facility in a city named 'Usa' That way, they could put "Made in Usa" on things and get away with it....

It is my understanding that that is exactly what Usa, Japan was for...
