ACB 10CV Monette Equivalent???

Hi. Just wondering if there's an equivalent Monette piece to the Austin Custom Brass 10CV. The 10CV had been my go-to lead piece for a long time, and I love it. For all other playing, I use my Monette Prana Resonance B4S S2, which plays better in every way than any piece I've ever played. I'd like to have my main arsenal all Monette (reasons of pitch center, etc.). Even if there's a Monette piece around the size of the 10CV, I'd like to know. Thanks, and happy playing.

Hey Bryant,

I play a 10 diameter with all my pieces and I have comfortably played a Monette Prana BL2J (Craig Johnson's Lead Mouthpiece) in the past although, he actually plays the Classic piece himself ... I am now playing the Lynn Nicholson Monette Prana mouthpiece that is actually a very shallow V Cup also in a very small 10ish diameter. They offer the BL2J on their website ... you would have to specify the Nicholson Prana piece to them by phoe or email.

Kindest Regards,
Russell
