OK, I have got more info on the Thunderbolt. It is looking like it was made by Yani (not Morgan) and has a high baffle amd is gold plated. According to something that was found on the Leblanc web site:
"The Thunderbolt soprano, alto and tenor mouthpieces are specifically designed for the ultimate in high end jazz performance. The power chamber provides great projection and a well focused sound.
The baffle and chamber allow the sound to be extremely varied, from a crackling thunderbolt to a cat's meow. Expressive, flexible, and reed-friendly, Thunderbolt facings allow you to maintain amazing control."
Leblanc had a retail price of $236. Do you think that $100 would make these mouthpieces a deal?
