Hello trumpet and cornet players! I'm curious if any of you guys are using a K & G mouthpiece. I've run across the website of this maker several times but am not familiar with them. I don't know that I have seen any information here about them, so I thought I would ask. Thanks in advance for your input.

They are based in Malta, which is small Island between Africa and Sicily.

Malta has a strong band tradition and lots of brass players. Boosey and Hawkes even had a factory there at one time. The K&G cornet and euphonium mouthpieces get a bit of use here in the UK. I have not seen any of their trumpet mouthpieces though.
