Another classic. My favorite clarinet mouthpiece was an Otto Link 4* from
the forties.

Hi Bill,
I would have to hunt to find a Brillhart, if one is still around, but
here is an Alto classic that I have handy.

Ah, yes, originally the work of the great Arnold Brillhart. I suspect that
like other mouthpieces of the era, they are worth a good bit more than
their original cost today.
Thanks to my experience as a player and a repairman in my younger days, I
suspect that in your time, to get a special barrel would require q special
order to the factory and a long waiting period with the addition of large
amounts of cash, an in those days I don['t think more that a couple of
lengths were readily available. OTOH, a skilled repairman could easily
shorten a longer one with a lathe and patience

Thanks, Bill. I grew up in the days of Brillharte mouthpieces and Tonex
pads. That made a third-hand clarinet work for me.

To answer jim, I never ad more than two mouthpieces,three barrels and a
box of reeds, but that was plenty for me. But remember all clarinetists
are neurotics.
