Which mouthpiece did Claude Gordon play? Trumpet Mouthpiece Review

[@godspods7681]

Adam rapa’s lotus mouthpieces have been getting a lot of traction recently, I would love to see a video where you discuss/compare the spectratone mouthpieces to the lotus. Efficiency, tone, etc. Love the content as always.

The Kanstul CG personal has a #20 drill throat. The Marcinkewitz offers a #22 throat as well as #20. They also have a Benge CG 3. Claude played on the Kanstul with a #20 throat. I got mine from Claude in 1982. I still play it on all my different keyed horns except for piccolo.

I have all three of the Kanstul CG Cornet m.p.'s. One Kanstul Trumpet CG mouthpiece. Very comfortable rims.

Marcinkiewicz makes 3 versions of the CG Personal. P-20 (.161 throat) P-22 (.157 throat) and CG 3 (.157 throat). CG3 has a shallower cup depth than the P's. The P-20 and P-22 are great - very free blowing and rich tone, I like them both a lot.

Useful video. I'll never have one of these but I love how it makes me think about Spectratone possibilities.

After I got my Bach Stradivarious in high school(I think in 1987), I also got a couple of years of lessons just to help my playing move forward. The instructor used the Claude Gordon book and I had to buy the mouthpiece. It was a nice mouthpiece but I never really liked it that much, as I always felt I had to use a LOT of air to really make this work well. I only used the mouthpiece for lessons. I still have the mouthpiece and the books. A friend also in band got the Claude Gordon trumpet and the mouthpiece. Of course, being a comeback player, I'm back on the mouthpiece hunt. The Kickstarter for the Spectratone was bad timing for me since I am between jobs at the moment so money is a bit tight, but that's how it goes sometimes.

I tried out the Benge CG model horn back in '81 and did not like the mouthpiece at all, it kind of locked me into one position and couldn't get around the horn with it. The Claude Gordon books are fine if used sparingly, I favor using a more musical approach.

I found that I need an acclamation period with the CG Personal. But I've had more success with it than the CG 3.

Also, it was Zig. He made them for Patty Gordon.

Awesome video Mr.Harrelson! I perform on a CG-1 made by Zig Kanstul @ "Kanstul Musical Instruments in Anaheim, Ca. Would love to win the CG-Personal!🎺🎼🎶🎨🇺🇸

[@KerryLorah]

Marcinkiewicz makes them but they vary some size wise from the Kanstul which i believe are truer to the original design. But I could be mistaken.

Sorry Jason if I have won and not claimed anything. I have 3 sons between the age of 24 and 20, One is in the Army getting ready to go to an area of Conflict and the other two are in college and are Davison ! athletes and musicians. I have replaces metal brake lines, calipers, rotors, pads, plugs, wires, coils, oil pan gasket, oil filter adapter gaskets, valve cover gaskets power steering pump, power steering lines and injectors on a Saturn Aura and Chevy Impala and am still working! I will likely be working on these cars up until Saturday the 27th. I have been working by myself for 3 weeks now. That not even including any help my oldest sun who is getting ready to deploy might need for himself and his wife! So if I have missed something I apologize. On top of that even though I am subscribed it has been at least 4 weeks maybe more since I have been notified of you posting anything! All the best Jason and crew all the best!

I have a kanstul copy, great piece!!

Its very similar to early 20th century MPC's i.e cookie cutters like H.N.White and others used to produce/ sell. I like these types of MPC'S . Comfortable rims are desired and these types have it. 3c Bach's hurt my lips. Really don't enjoy using a Bach.
