Hey shake,
Did you know that there is little if any difference between a Helleberg 7B (your mouthpiece)and the Schilke 66 (my mouthpiece). They are both modelled after the original 1920s and 30s Helleberg which is actually a bit smaller than the Helleberg of today. Schilke's wife played tuba. . . owned a Helleberg and he decided to make a copy. Just a little note of history.
Billy (who thinks his Schilke 66 kicks his old Bach 24AW's butt) M.
