Thanks for saying Hi Lloyd!

I'm currently playing a Sovereign alto with a Wick 5 mouthpiece, but I think
I need to change mouthpieces.  It seems my high range is consitantly sharp,
and my low range is consitantly flat.  From my low brass playing friends, I
hear that I probably need a mouthpiece with a deeper cup.  I own a Wick 2,
But my tone sounds like garbage on it, and my tuning doesn't seem any
different.

Have you ever tried any other brands of mouthpiece?  Do you even know where
to get them?  Of course no one seems to stock alto horn mouthpieces in the
US.  I may just end up ordering a few blindly.  Any advice you have would be
appreciated.

Thanks!

Mary Ellen
