Kessler Custom 50/50 Mouthpiece .... Anyone?

Thank you, Everyone! I know it is ultimately my decision, I was just kinda wondering what other's experience might be. I drive down to the Vegas airport tomorrow to pick up my boys, and thought I would leave early and stop in at Kessler Music to try out a mouthpiece or 2 .... right now all I have are a couple student mouthpieces -- one King and one Runyan. My sax is a vintage Martin alto.

Thanks for your input!!

Thanks Dave and Chitown! Everyone was friendly and helpful at Kessler's Music and I ended up trying out 4 mouthpieces, then decided on a Meyer 7MM ... it has a lot of projection for me, plays easily from high to low range, and doesn't brighten up my "vintage" Martin sound too much. I like a little brightness, but the "Martin sound" is kinda "dark and smoky" in the first place.

One more little question tho: If I did decide I wanted to play it brighter at times, would applying a removable "stick-on" baffle do the job?

Thank you, Saxist and Mojo!!

I also read on this forum that using dental wax or putty would make a removable baffle that would stick to the mouthpiece while playing, but be removable when I wished to switch back to dark tone.

Does this sound reasonable? Thanks!!
