 | Re: The Wedge I used to play a B2 or B4s. Now I'm strictly all Wedge (once my flugel piece arrives). Here are some clips from last night! For me the Wedge outplays any other thing I've tried. I've tired a few ;) buncha new clips from last night These clips I used a Kanstul Mariachi (990, not 991... awesome horn!) and my trusty Wedge 3c... this mix is way worse than the raw file. I'm trying a new mixing software. Cut and paste each link into your browser.

 | Re: The Wedge It's in Canadian dollars, but it doesn't matter much these days. It's pretty much the same as the American dollar.

| Re: The Wedge Well, according to an online converter, 200 Canadian equals about 197.55 American dollars. There's 2.45 for an ice cream or something else. :)

| Re: The Wedge Anyways, what's the reason for such a high price for a mouthpiece? Isn't the metal worth, like, only 20 bucks for each mouthpiece?

| Re: The Wedge Quote:
The mark up is there because of the tooling that has to be made to make the mouthpiece, the time it takes to make one and the craftsmanship needed to make one. Also account that it is a business and businesses are started to make money. Why do people pay millions for paintings? It is just a can of paint on a piece of canvas. | |

| Re: The Wedge If you can make it yourself, just go ahead. I suspect it will cost you a few thousands to just make one mouthpiece like the Wedge :)
