Interesting teaser. I know this was mentioned, but is there any idea about what's new?

Dave Houser is selling the previous Loud mouthpiece line as Mouthpiece Ordnance mouthpieces, with the same screw rim interface as the Sellmansbeger mouthpieces. I do not know what the new Loud mouthpieces will be like however.

I have been using a Loud LM7 for a few months (after many years of Conn-Hellberg) and I am finally beginning to appreciate the differences. I was looking to try a LM12, but I actually think the 7 is a better choice for me. I mostly do indoor and outdoor jazz tuba/Sousaphone and I have found my higher range to be more approachable and the lower range to be much easier to predict. My volume (with normal blowing) is a bit improved and I am happy with the results!
I have no idea what the "new Loud" will be - I HATE teaser websites - but there seems to be something good with the recent designs...

It's nice to have a visual diagram (cut out) of the tuba mouthpieces, extremely helpful!

Question: So are these now exactly the same as the Mouthpiece Ordnance line, but with a different exterior? And who's making these?

It seems that some specs have changed, so the throat of the LM-7 is now a bit smaller, and seemingly they don't have screw rims anymore. As to who actually makes them, the website is talking of nuclear and rocket scientists..... 8)

I don't know if there are any more models that Joe is bringing back, but I bought a LM 11 from him a few weeks ago for my 181, what he says on his website is spot on. It's a great mouthpiece. I could tell a difference in the sound instantly. They are one piece...no screw rims. I highly recommend them!

Is the LM-11 like the LM-12? I have the LM-12 but it's labeled as LM-11.
Not according to the specs on the website -- and you can get there from here:

Worth taking a look! :)
