Review: Really Great Mouthpiece (I purchased the c3) - This mouthpiece is great for the price. The only issue I had with it was that the cork was thick and wouldn’t fit through into the barrel. Luckily, corks can always be shaven down with some sand paper tape :) The service was great and came quite fast and they even included a reciept page with information on how to return the product... that impressed me because most sellers don’t do that, or at least the sellers I’ve purchased from in the past. I don’t think I’ll be returning my c3 anytime soon, as it has a great sound and works great. I would recommend the c3 if you want a nice bright sound, because compared to my past mouth piece (which came with my clarinet) this one is brighter sounding as it describes on the box.
Review: One of three decent mouthpieces - I recently ordered this mouthpiece to test the difference between the Rico Graftonite Bb Clarinet Mouthpiece, A5 , Rico Graftonite Bb Clarinet Mouthpiece, B7 , and C5. As it goes, it is as advertised. The C-series certainly has a very brilliant, very light tone to it that makes it easier to play, while the A-series is much more round in tone. The difference in all three are easily noticeable. Upgrading from a no-name, no-brand mouthpiece that came with my Mendini MCT-30 B Flat Intermediate Rosewood Clarinet w/ Case, Tuner, Stand, Mouthpiece, Box of 10 Reeds, Cork Grease, & a Pair of Gloves , the C5 brought out my middle register under the bridge (low C up to Bb) and really projects my low E~G range. The upper register is still brilliant, although a little pinched, which can be ironed out through practice. If you don't have a professional mouthpiece or two, these are decent substitutes. I would recommend investing in all three to test what sort of tone you are looking for based on your play style and literature choice.
