I have a gold plated megatone mpc only marked 3c on it, no Bach markings. Any idea who could have made it?

Probably something off of Amazon or Ebay...those are readily available and I've had many students show up with those the last few years.
Do they feel like a 3c or sound like it? I haven't come across one. One student had one that was bigger than my 1x

With the right equipment it is not very difficult to make good copies so it is very possible that those mouthpieces play well. And I heard rumors that the VB mouthpieces are made in a factory in Germany that also produces cheap brand mouthpieces. But this is not knowledge of my own, just hear saying.
