Mouthpiece Work / Clarinet Mouthpiece Blanks Other Than Zinner
FROM: sanguinepenguin123 (sanguinepenguin123)
SUBJECT: Clarinet Mouthpiece Blanks Other Than Zinner
I would like to get some other blanks besides the ones zinner provides. Personally, I don't like the way mouthpieces made from zinner blanks play, but I do like the ones from Vandoren or other vintage mouthpieces that I have done. I am not a beginner and am not interested in experimenting with junky mouthpieces. I have heard of Babbitt blanks but have no idea where to get them. By the way, where do people get those clear plastic blanks? Ideas?
