| Re: Copying Mouthpieces
I would agree that Kanstul would be a good choice. They use digital scanner to make an exact copy. Greg Black and some of the other mouthpiece makers may do a good job, but they do it "by hand". or eyeballing, so to speak. This is just one experience but I had Greg Black try and copy a Jet Tone rim for me and it wasn't close. But I don't think the price I'm seeing mentioned of $150 from Kanstul is correct (probably was at one time). I recently inquired to Kanstul about copying a friends Cat Anderson mouthpiece (a mouthpiece owned by Cat, with a pin hole throat and about as shallow as a dime-- amazing!) and I can't remember exactly-- but the total price involved was more like $250-300 after paying for the scan and then the mouthpiece itself. |
