Helleberg Twins

Post by Tim Jackson »

Some months ago I considered selling these off. But who would pay $450 for a mouthpiece I thought, which is what I have in each one. Typically around $300 on eBay then another $150 to get 'em pretty. Then along comes a Getzen G-50 to the fleet and... voila! a great pair!
Glad I never sell anything - it's a curse and sometimes a blessing!

Anyone ever made some CNC scans of the originals for duplication?

I use a Helleberg on my Getzen as well! It's a great fit.
