And isn't it amazing that Maynard Ferguson and Bill Chase and Bud Brisbois and Cat Anderson didn't lose their embouchures when they spent their entire careers using mouthpieces that were *much* smaller than the 13a4a and the 14a4a that you and I have tried.
What probably happened was that you did *not* loose your embouchure playing another mouthpiece.
You adapted to that other mouthpiece so much that when you tried to go back to the Bach 5C your embouchure protested yet another mouthpiece change, so that your embouchure had to re-adapt to get used to the Bach 5C again.
