Re: Jazz Mouthpiece
Well mine is definitely plastic...its easy to tell by a number of methods: warm it up and rub it, it should smell like burning rubber, or put your wet reed on, put the shank in your palm to seal the end, then suck until the reed seals to the facing (should work if your lay is correct), if it makes a high, tinny pop its plastic and if its a vibrant, low pop its hard rubber. Also, plastic is generally shiny and hard while hard rubber pieces are duller and a bit softer. It's strange wwbw would list it as hard rubber...i think the plastic adds to its projection, actually.
