I understand Mr Jacobs bought a CONN Helleberg (NOT an 'original') which he had later modified by Mr R Shilke. The Conn was not in production for many years and I'm not sure it is one of the two standard Conn Models now offered.
My opinion here is if you don't have any problems and nobody else has mouthpiece advice to change, I'd leave it well alone...
"If it aint broke, don't fix it" as we say in England : )
When pupils tell me they want to change mouthpiece I always ask them why. What specifically are you trying to alter by changing mouthpiece?? If you're unsure of that and, importantly HOW you think this new mouthpiece will help you achieve your goals, you don't want to be changing right now.
Just my opinion...
