Threaded mouthpieces - custom fabrications

A musician who must switch to another instrument with a different shank size, or who must change shanks quickly, is best served by a threaded mouthpiece. Of all the mouthpieces which I manufacture, more than half have a removable, threaded top. With these mouthpieces, the musician can combine any rim with different mouthpieces. Certain combinations can be musically very advantageous.

As a matter of principle, all mouthpieces which I offer in my catalogue can be made with detachable, threaded tops. In addition, you can order custom mouthpieces, which I will fabricate according to your specifications, and they too can be made with threaded tops. Such custom orders are usually designed to correct special problems:

	Problems involving breathing, endurance, flexibility, etc. Custom mouthpieces can allow you to improve the quality of your playing.
	You wish to change the lower portion of the mouthpiece to move to another instrument or to obtain a different tone quality.
	Physical problems caused by differences in the teeth, lower jaw, positioning or embouchure can be taken into account.
