Re: Bach NY era mouthpieces
Hard to say how consistent Bach's raw brass would have been. I doubt it he would have been buying brass in large enough quantities to get it direct from a mill, so he would have been buying it from a distributor. He'd get whatever they had in the warehouse that met the standard spec for chemistry and temper.

Perhaps he was marinating the mouthpiece in coffee to enhance its molecular structure?GabeLangfur wrote: ↑Fri May 22, 2020 6:21 am At one point I picked up a mug and had to take a mouthpiece out to pour coffee in it.
Might make it play with more "esprit!"

To my understanding, that's not the way the non-CNC method works...
All very good factual information that I will pass on to the "speculators". Thanks to all for sharing your knowledge.Doug Elliott wrote: ↑Thu May 21, 2020 9:25 pm Jet-Tones were made by tracing but I think they were the only ones. I think way too much is made of the worn tools theory...
