Hi,
I have a Francois Louis T 285 is a 2.85 mm tip opening (112/00”) equivalent to the traditional “8/8*” opening. Combined with a medium long facing length and a soft facing curve. Due to the longer facing curve, it brings more resistance and takes more air.(This make it feel “bigger”) The soft curve gives it a lot of flexibility. This is the best mouthpiece for the professional player that needs to use all possibilities of dynamics, sound colors and range in one mouthpiece., without having to struggle too hard on a real big mouthpiece.
Best fit with 2 1/2 to 4 reeds.
This piece has very slight tooth marks on the beak, other than that it's an excellent player, harmonics pop out and the tone is rich. I want to swap it as I find it too dark for my tastes. As an experiment, I'm looking for a piece with a smaller tip opening.. Like an old Berg or something !! medium bright!!
PM me with offers
