I have a cheap Chinese Soprano which plays great for my level! I have swapped the mouthpiece for a Yamaha 4C. The only issue is that I have had to sand the Mouthpiece cork down to super thin so I can get it on enough, to play in tune. This makes the cork very susceptible to damage. So I have come up with a solution...... it's not pretty but it seems to work. I am using layers of PTFE plumbers tape. It seems to work well! I know this will make the purists squirm but surely there must be a better solution in the 21st century than cork!
I have seen adverts for synthetic cork, but I would have the same issue because it has to be so thin and would damage easily.
Does anyone know of intermediate mouthpieces that are bigger bore?
Thanks
