So I played on a DEG nylon mouthpiece with metal shank, and felt very little ill effects during cold weather on Monday. I think it wouldn't be a bad idea to have some sort of plastic mouthpiece, whether the whole thing is plastic or just the rim, for our multi-weather duties.

My question --

If you could have YOUR FAVORITE mouthpiece dimensions made in any combination of brass & plastic, what would you prefer?
- Plastic cup, metal shank?
- Plastic rim only, the rest metal?
- All plastic (yes, from the face to the horn)?
- No plastic, give me wood.
- or heck with that, go with all metal as usual?
