Elite Bass Clarinet F3 "Elite is an understatement for the Chedeville Bass Clarinet mouthpiece. I spent five hours with four of these Chedeville Elite Bass Clarinet mouthpieces when I first brought them home to choose one, but the very first note I played at the dealer turned heads and blew away ears. I was speechless. I have a great bass clarinet mouthpiece collection, but there is nothing anywhere like these. The combination of instant response, effortless register leaps, shimmering warmth and liquidity in the upper register, chocolate covered caramel in the chalumeau, crystal clear articulation, robust power and pure pianissimos has to be heard to be believed. So…try one of these out and become a believer. I was astonished…you will be too." -Chuck Currie
