These are made of lucite (virtually indestructable) and fit into the

YES!
I had one of the older metal BERPs, but lost it
somewhere. I bought one of the clamp-on ones (I call
it a Borg Implant), and I don't like it. Thanks for
the tip!

True, BERP's used to be made of metal. The new ones are now made of
plastic that can be clamped to one's leadpipe. I have one of the old
ones, which I prefer much better. In fact, I don't like the new model
at all.

The BERP folks discontinued the metal ones several years ago. The

Last time I was in Dillons maybe a month ago I def saw the metal ones
on the wall with the other ones. Perhaps they are out of stock now.

They do not appear to make a metal one. The metal ones that I have
seen (moosewood, etc.) actually fit inside the lead pipe and do not
clamp onto it as does the BERP (much better solution in my mind as it
doesn't
I don't think BERP makes a metal one (I certainly have been wrong before)
but Chuck McAlexander makes a metal "burp like device" you might want to
call him and clarify with the teacher. He or she should be able to show you
what they are talking about.

I'm pretty sure Dillons has both the metal and plastic BERP. Just
gotta call them.

Hi,
I just started playing after 30 years. The BERP wasn't around then:)
My teacher nudged me into using a BERP, not as a substitute for my
horn, but as
lip muscle training technique. The BERP provides the back pressure of
the horn but

Hi all,
Better than a berp is a score of the piece you are playing (or just a
good ear).
Find a tutti spot where you can quietly play a note of the chord. For
example if you are playing a piano concerto in D, find a spot where
you can quietly play along on a D concert (our A), or perhaps an A
What if it is at the beginning of the piece?
Of course, picture that your nerves have gotten a hold of you, and you
forget to move the mouthpiece from the BERP back on to the horn...Here
comes the High Bnat ...PPFFFTT.
Whoa Nelly.
I doubt that there is a serious substitute for skill,
We've all seen these BERP's for sale for ~$20. But what do they really do
for you? Here's what I'd like it to do for me. I'd like it to occupy a
mouthpiece right off the leadpipe right beside my 'main' mpc in my horn
which I think it was designed to do so, so far no problem. Before coming in
