Re: Heavyweight Mouthpiece

Just to drop in, the mouthpiece is obviously only part of the whole setup, and not only does the whole setup has to be in agreement with you, and it has to sound good to whom it matters the most, usually the guy with some involvement with your paycheck. I agree that it's rare to see a classical player using a heavyweight mouthpiece, but your own Manny Laureano uses a heavy horn and mouthpiece setup. He'd be the best one to ask though about his own setup.
