"Hey Jim, got the mouthpiece! Actually playing your charts on Brent Phillip's trombone festival in Colorado. I haven't been able to find an alto mouthpiece that feels right but this one feels great! I play a relatively big rim on tenor and I've always felt like I couldn't get my chops into the standard sized alto mouthpieces. Thanks for releasing these!"
