Thanks guys, Here is another question: where can I find a replacement lower mouthpipe for a Conn 14K? Here is a pic of how it is set up now:




When I got it it didn't have a gooseneck, and the lower mouthpipe was really crushed up, and the "reciever" (where the gooseneck slid into the lower mouthpipe) looked like it had been torn out with a pair of pliars. This is what I rigged up from the local band repair junk box. It is a neck from who knows what, a clarinet ligiture silversodered onto the lower mouthpipe to tighten it and I still need plumbers tape to not leak.

If I can find a new (or used) lower mouthpipe mabey I can get this thing right!

Thanks everyone

George
