PT-9
I have a PT-9 laying here at home and wondered what mouthpiece it relates to today? Thanks.

In addition to Greg's post, someone about a year or so ago posted a chart transliterating the equivalents of the old numbering system to the new, and I believe included what models didn't have a modern equivalent, but what would be similar as well. Now, if I could only find and post the link to the thread.

PT 9
when i started learning F tuba in high school, i borrowed a horn from someone in the area (old man, really old tuba, Zeiss?) that had a PT 9 in it. When i called Custom Music to purchase one Neal told me the closest thing they had was the PT 64. They feel about the same as far as depth and backbore but the rim of the 64 is much taller than the 9. Both are very soft, rounded rims but the 64 is a bit taller from the inner most contact point to the top of the rim. FWIW

Re: PT-9
The PT-9 is equivalent to the PT-64. I have owned both, but not at the same time, so I can't be sure at the detailed level, but they are supposed to be the same.tubadaddy92 wrote:I have a PT-9 laying here at home and wondered what mouthpiece it relates to today? Thanks.

Yes, the "new" PT-9 is the PT-64, or the RM-9 (still made in old style)...I bought an RM-9 from Lee Stofer a few years ago http://www.tubameister.com/
