I went over to Schilke and Yamaha mouthpieces (16C4 mostly) after playing Bach 1's and 1 1/2 pieces since 1968 several years back, and when I started regularly playing Eb cornet and Pic, I used a 15A4a on the Eb and 14A4a (and later 14A4x) on the pic. I have a few Yamaha's in addition to the Schilke, and I believe the perceived smaller size is due to the Yamaha rim being a bit flatter than the Schilke, making the bite a bit further in, based on the feel to me. _________________ huntman10
