There is nothing I will attempt to add to the pedigree except to remind you that the legends like Cannonball Adderley and Sonny Stitt hand-picked them. If you've never played a Meyer Bros mouthpiece, yes, there really is something special in the tone. It will make you turn your head with joy.

SPECS: our client has had the luxury to play several of these models with varying tip sizes. I trust him to be honest in it's playability. Please see the only note worth inspecting on the tip rail as that may have a small area to inspect, and/or handle with expert repair -- there are 2 options for repair there: 1) filling, 2) opening the tip about 0.001". For that reason I put the 0.070 on in this listing if it is opened up past the expected, unmeasured 0.069" common original tip size.

SHIPPING: We should expect to counsel on the best methods. I can only mention that a few years ago required the most expensive USPS Global shipping method to get the insurance value correct - it shipped in 2 days for $100, fully insured(at that time).
