Bach megatone vs pt88+ vs schilke 69c4

Post by GhostlyBoy08 »

Are these two mouthpieces the same in anyway? Im looking to use one of these for marching band and concert band.
Tell me your experiences if you have either of these mouthpieces

I also have been looking at the schilke 69c4

I have played both the Bach 24 mega, and the pt88+. I own the 88 and use it for orchestra and brass band stuff occasionally. I don't feel that either are great as marching pieces due to their dark sound and lack of clarity on articulation. If you are set on that is what you are looking for then the bach 24 is shallower and may be better for all around playing. The pt is deep and really nice for big, low passages. Just my thoughts.
