I need Berg Larsen baritone sax mouthpiece, Bronze 115/2 M-facing. Can you tell me where I can find one.I want it for present for my brother in Bulgaria, where it is very expensive.Thank you!

The only place I know to get the Berg Larsen Mouthpieces from is Berg Larsen in Belgium. They are very Expensive and when I contacted them, I discovered that they do not allow for returns if the Mouthpiece is not right.

According to the website, these mouthpieces are 335.00 Euros or about $670.00.

Please post, if you find an outlet in the USA. I have been looking for about 10 years now for someone who carries them.

Good Luck.

Hi Ushna

They are quite readily available in the UK. Don Mackrills and Bill Lewingtons both stock them as well as sax.co.uk - Google the names and you'll find the web sites with contact details. Might be as well to ring them first before ordering, just to check stock. Sax.co.uk usually have the best range of stock, and although they're not the cheapest, they are very helpful and knowledgable.

The catch here is the M facing. SMS facings are easy enough to get hold of, M facings are very rare indeed

When I have measured and compared the M and SMS facings on tenor, I have not been able to see a consistent difference. They seem to stamp them randomly. So I would just play test as many as you can to find a good one.
