I ordered this mouth piece for my daughter who is a Freshman in college. She told me that she "Absolutely Loves It". It was the upgrade that she needed. Thank you Andy's Music for getting it to her in a timely manner.
This was exactly what my 18 year old son wanted for his concert tuba. He loves it!
