My Dad plays tuba. For the longest time, he played on a mouthpiece that he says was called a Bellaire 24.
It looks like a big silver (I think it was nickel-plated) Bell. The mouthpiece that Dad had had a deep cup, and flat sharp rim. The back bore wasn't all that big, so that is why I opted to play something else. Alas, my Dad has lost his, and wants to replace it. So I thought I would turn to the list and ask if anyone has any knowledge or has heard of this particular mouthpiece.
Does anyone know or have any idea how I can get a hold of one? Any info on the company would be helpful and appreciated.
