My man! I play the same mouthpiece for 10 years now. And I had no idea, that I can fix it to be more responsive. But your video... I don't say, I hear the difference... I say that I FEEL the difference! You're awesome 😎 Thank you for the knowledge. (Excuse my english, It's not my 1st language)
Thanks for checking this video out! Yes, a lot has to do with the feel of the mouthpiece both as a player but certainly also as a listener. I think it has to do with how well the player can connect with the sound.
At least she didn't start howling. My dog when I was a kid did that. He really loved it, came over sat next to me and howled along when I was practicing LOL!
@@Stephan-Kammerer thanks for the reply - whatever the reeds are you sound fantastic! In both this and the video in which you refaced a D’Addario Select Jazz, I almost hear the pieces as being slightly more brilliant after you lowered the baffle.
@@chrisrotsching363 Hi Chris. Thank you! Yes, it's almost always the case when the baffle has been so high that the needle file touches the baffle when you put it through the bore.
@@chrisrotsching363 Yes. On a baffle like that, you will lose a lot of the mid-range and low harmonics and only retain the paint peeler brights. Not bad or wrong just different. Often though, what we consider "high baffle" is often long baffle pieces. Pieces like that will have a lot of power with full low harmonics and midrange. Think, Brecker or Berg... Powerful and full sounds
The C# test changed the way I test mouthpieces. It's a solid way to check! Thank you for going in depth about it
Yeah man! It makes a huge difference!

wow, your demo is very impressive! great way to tease out facing imperfections!
Thank you!
Stephan, this was a fun one! Leona was so curious when you started playing the notes! Lol. You have fans for life! 🔥🔥🔥

great video, very educational thank you Stephan!
Hi Timo! Thanks man!
I need one of your alto pieces, or a refacing for my main piece. Love your videos and work!
Hi Lalo. Let's talk! Would you send me a message through my website? Then we'll find a time to talk.
Excelente. Pronto le enviaré una Otto Link STM del año 80. Un abrazo.
I believe that mouthpiece is on it's way back to you! Thanks for trusting your piece with me!
Do you have any experience with ted klum mouthpieces tenor hard rubber...
So i the mouthpiece wont pass these TEST ..THE IT NEEDS TO BE FIX?
What reeds are you using when you play test these pieces?
Hi Chris, I am pretty sure these were Select Jazz 3M unfiled.

@@Stephan-Kammerer Fascinating stuff! So is it possible to have a “higher” baffle mouthpiece in which the needle file does not touch the baffle?
