Mouthpieces
If you're like the Vintage Clarinet Doctor, you enjoy trying different mouthpieces to alter the tone, intonation, and play-ability of your clarinet or saxophone. Maybe you want a Jazz sound, a Classical sound, or a Klezmer sound: its going to be a stretch to get all those from one 'piece!
Maybe you are looking for something more open to get more volume and less back-bore pressure, or just a good quality inexpensive hard rubber 'piece to save a student from spending big $$ for a new commercial 'piece!
Maybe you are a refacer, and want a cheap old hard rubber mouthpiece to tinker with! All of these have come in with old clarinets/saxes or been bought in a fit of "mouthpiece curiosity". All are clean, re-corked (as needed) and guaranteed playable. Whatever your needs, please look below...
I'm happy to recork any of my mouthpieces to your specifications for a modest charge!
