This question somehow reminds me of a story told about one of our
local freelance tuba players. He played an entire performance of the
Nutcracker with a mouthpiece he carved out of a potato shortly
beforehand. The sad thing was how good it sounded, he said.

PS: Ashley: get a metal mouthpiece - you'll be happier. And try out a
bunch before you buy.

I am looking for a new mouthpiece to try. I don't really know what
kind I want, but am leaning toward a wooden one. I was wondering if
there was anyway to look at one before taking the dive and
purchasing one then deciding it doesn't work for me...
