﻿If you're like the Vintage Clarinet Doctor, you enjoy trying different mouthpieces to alter the tone, intonation, and play-ability of your clarinet or saxophone. Maybe you want a Jazz sound, a Classical sound, or a Klezmer sound: its going to be a stretch to get all those from one 'piece!
Maybe you are looking for something more open to get more volume and less back-bore pressure, or just a good quality inexpensive hard rubber 'piece to save a student from spending big $$ for a new commercial 'piece!
A very rare c.1920 or earlier, hand faced, hard rubber Eb alto clarinet mouthpiece by V. Kohlert Sons of Graslitz. It came in with a Kohlert alto clarinet (which I'll be offering soon), is in great condition and appears unaltered. Tip opening is narrow, about .046" but should be a sweet player with a harder reed. Beak, table and rails good for age.
Up for sale is this rare Grenadilla wood Bb clarinet mouthpiece marked 'France'. It came in with an Albert system clarinet from c.1920, is in good condition and appears unaltered. Tip opening is moderate, about .045" and, though facing shows use, still produces a good pop. Table, tip and beak in good shape. A good match for your antique Albert clarinet!
