I found this mouthpiece which is a mystery to me in a way: the "MP 7*" indicates it was refaced by one of the best German refaces who has, sadly enough, stopped his refacing-business: Jo Schnabl. I once had a Dukoff Hollywood that he had worked on, and it was absolutely top notch.
I'm talking about the tip size stamps on both sides (if I see them correctly). Underneath Joe's stamp there is a (larger font size) 6. On the other side, where you usually find the tip size stamp, I think I see a "4*" in a smaller font size that is typical of the Florida no USA period.
Could this mean the mouthpiece was refaced by Link in the Babbitt era? Did they use a stamp on the opposite side if they refaced an older Link?
I hope the pics can help. Thanks for looking and commenting.
