QUESTION:
Can anybody give a poor little Canadian boy an insight as to how the various
numbers and letters designate the size(s) of mouthpieces.
e.g. You refer to 24AW and 24 W.
What does 24 mean?
What does A mean?
What does W mean?
What does 24AW mean?
What does 24W mean?
As for myself, I use a Markceiweitz (sorry for the spelling) when I play my BBb
Sovereign. I also prefer the Roberts moder of the same mouthpiece for by
Sovereign Bass Bone, Bb, F &  Eb.
As for all the comments on Bessons. I have always played them prior to the
Sovereign, the Imperials, right from the BBb to my still valued G Trom.
I have nothing but admiration and love for them all. Maybe I am biased or naive,
but these are my humble feelings.
Take care, and Phil your (band's) book on the Centennary has been a big hit
around the West Coast of British Columbia here! One just cannot put it down. Now
about your Centennary CD... When do we expect to receive it?
Thanks again,
Larry White
