It doesn't appear from Doug's site that the sort of shape Art uses is regularly available. . . .

Re: Science or silly mouthpiece?
That is exactly how I see my mouthpieces, and my teaching which is another subject entirely. There is a lot more to playing a brass instrument on a very high level... matching the mouthpiece AND playing mechanics to the individual... instead of playing and choosing equipment randomly.Doc wrote:This design is to help the player play better.
