I'm sorry, I know a lot of people ask for help on mouthpieces all the time, but
alot of you really seem to be pro's and really know what you are talkign about so here I go ...
I was looking at the mouthpiece sites recommended below in another message (schikelemusic & mouthpieceexpress.com) and I've read it all and my head is buzzing with information.
I just wanna make sure I get a mouthpiece that suits my needs & my horn, and I was thinking maybe you would have a suggestion as to what would suit me best.
I play an eb tuba, and I love playing in upper range as well as the lower range. I don't mind getting a mouthpiece that provides abit of challenge in the start, as long as it'll be what will help me out & be good for me in the long run. I practice alot and have no problem adjusting & challenging a challenge... lol ...
I was looking at Bach & Schikele, as it is what most recommend, there are just so many options.
Thank you in advance for any help & info to help me find my way in this mouthpiece jungle:)
Thanks:)
