It's been talked about before but Kelly Mouthpieces?

What is the most normal looking color?

So my red Kellyburg mouthpiece arrived sometime this week so I will be trying it out tomorrow

[tclements]

I like them. I have them hanging around and in my car, in case I forget a mouthpiece. I have no compunction about using one on a gig. Is it ideal? No, I wouldn't use one regularly, but I have on occasion. If I were to play an outside gig, I'd use one in a heartbeat.

I find that they are not as resonant as a brass mouthpiece, when playing with high amplitude.

They do look cool, and are great in the cold!

Another advantage of Lexan MPCs: As most of them are transparent, one may be motivated to keep it clean. One doesn´t want to appear gross to others, right ?
I have seen MPCs that, upon closer inspection, featured a heavily altered cross-section due to meal leftovers of the past three years. YUCK!!

For that very reason the two that I own are the opaque burgundy and blue colors.

What is the most normal looking color?

I got one in an ivory white color that at least didn't looked gaudy...

...until I turned out the lights and discovered it glowed in the dark.

Well I tried it out today and it feels like a Heleburg except the material is obviously different. I thought it was pretty good but it did break up at higher dynamics much sooner so I will try the lead tape idea once I can locate some lead tape. Also my idea of having all of the brass players in the marching band be required to have one for cold weather (believe me people will not even blow warm air into their instruments and expect them to play correctly when it is cold) doesn't seem like it will work because my band director said he hated plastic mouthpieces (I do not know why at this point).
