Anyone know the approximate specs on this mouthpiece - Monette B9. Didn't see it listed on the website. Just thought I'd check here before calling Monette themselves.

10 1/2 C is about right.

I had one and it´s indeed very similar to a Bach 10 1/2C. The closest match seems to be the Schilke 13B, though.

I was given a B9 by a very generous friend (he moved to a B4). I emailed Monette and they replied that it is closest to a Schilke 13B. If you go to the Kanstul Mouthpiece Comparator, you will see that they match-up very close.
It is a great mouthpiece for all-around work, at least for me. However, I will probably send it back to my friend as the old 3C feels better.
