According to my sources, Rudolf Meinl got some of his mouthpieces from Josef Tilz at one point, hence the JT-1. Josef Tilz was the brother of Bruno Tilz, who still supplies Rudolf Meinl today, as well as Hirsbrunner and Perantucci. Josef Tilz retired some time ago and therefore the mouthpieces are no longer available.
The Rudolf Meinl RM-1 or RM-1. (dot designates slightly larger throat) are prime choices for a Rudi 3/4 CC, as well as the RM-2 or RM-2., if one prefers a slightly smaller version. These are all Helleberg-style mouthpieces, but have the correct shank and bore for optimum intonation on the 3/4 Rudi.
