Kelly Stainless Steel tuba mouthpiece

Post by AFtuba »

Hi
Anyone of you have had experience with Kelly Stainless Steel tuba mouthpiece?

What about the production quality?

Thanks

I purchased cktuba's stainless steel Kellyberg mouthpiece. It is everything he says it is. I enjoy using it very much. If you prefer the Helleberg style of mouthpieces, and you want to try a stainless steel mouthpiece, I would recommend this mouthpiece. This mouthpiece is a good mouthpiece; I prefer the feel of a stainless steel mouthpieces to the conventional silver plated brass.

I have one. I switched to it after the gold plating on my Conn Helleberg really began to show its wear. The problem with gold plating is that it wears down within 2-4 years, so I decided to go stainless. There is hardly any difference if at all in the way my stainless Kellyberg plays as compared to my Conn Helleberg.
