mouthpiece for Buescher

As mentioned,I have an excellent 1951 Buescher 400.I am an old guy and was brought up listening to Hodges ,Willie Smith and Benny Carter.I need a new mouthpiece but live on an Island where there are no band instrument stores so have to use the internet for everything I dont want a piece that will give me that brilliant tone that is popular today.Someone suggested a Morgan but they are really back ordered. Does anyone make good copies of the old Myers?Thank you for any suggestions.I plan to order several from W.W.B.W on their return program and need your kind experience.

    Bob Ackerman's "Lost Wax" moutpieces are decent copies of vintage moutpieces.

      Might want to think about an RPC (saxmpc.com)...you can talk to Ron about what you want and he can customize it for you, though you have to wait a bit for it (trust me it's well worth it...) I'm still blowin' my 90R...Meyer on steroids...
