Hello Tseligas

It took me quite some time to catch up with all the posts.

I hope I can add to the conversation about mouthpieces.
I use Van Dorens
B45
B45*
B46
5Jb

Reeds

VanDoren 1.5
Mitchell Laurie 2.0 (shaved)
Le Voz
Hot and Swing (French) 1.0

Here is where it gets tricky. What combination of clarinet make, mouthpiece and reed gives the best sound (for demotika)??

Remember, I play mostly with Boehm and my favourite combination
is the Buffet La with 5JB and Hot and swing reed number 1.0.

On an Albert (buffet), the most common combination is a B45 and a hot and swing
number 1.

On the Selmer, I use a B45 with a VanDoren 1.5.

Niaven,

I am using B45 with Vandoren 1.5 and I have also tried several others like Goldentone 3.

I am probably going to get a very open one. I will do my research see if I can find something that's even more open than a 5JB.

Chitowngreek is in talks with a custom builder of greek mouthpieces. I will also wait for his review see if it is worth it.
