Buescher C-Soprano mouthpiece needs
Hello All,
My first post to the group, so apologies if I'm treading on a well-worn topic.
I just came into possession of a Buescher Tru-Tone soprano keyed in C and had it completely re-padded and regulated by Dr. Sax in Madison WI. He did a great job. The horn was built in 1926 according to the serial number tables.
The mouthpiece is definitely an original, meant for the C horn and not a Bb. The Bb pieces I've compared it to are much larger. I'd like to get a mouthpiece with a slightly wider tip opening to suit my embouchure and playing style and I'm concerned that just purchasing a Bb mouthpiece will cause many problems, including intonation issues, etc.
Any advice is appreciated if you know of a seller, refacer, or any other resource for pieces for this great horn.
Thanks in advance.
Johnny
