Other than some of the 32.9 #2 profile bonded rims (for the economy-model mouthpiece)...

This time, I just had ALL of my new-stock rims gold-tone titanium coated.

It's just that this coating so popular (and sure: it absolutely makes the mouthpieces "pop"), it's just easier for that to be the default way that I stock rims.

The layout of the complete line of mouthpieces was lost (at my request) from the old place.

I'll post it here - in its own thread - very soon.

Feel free to call ...maybe: until 10 P.M... Central time.
We get up fairly early...It gets dark early...We work pretty hard...We get tired...We go to bed fairly early.
I'm glad to chat (well...maybe up until 10:30 P.M.) regardless of whether someone's ready to purchase a mouthpiece (or additional components for their existing equipment).

I'm also glad to discuss repair work (as is Mrs. bloke - an amazing woodwind repair person)...and you can text me pic's (to my cell phone) while asking about repairs on our land-line.
Our shop phone number (land line - not available for texting) is posted here (along with a bunch of independent reviews)...

No more black? Just curious.

special order...

btw...There's actually a CLEAR titanium coating that COULD be applied...(really)
...so I could fib, and CLAIM that an un-coated rim is "clear titanium coated", couldn't I ?

I'd never tell . . .

Just to clarify...

The $165 "economy" combo-of-best-selling-features mouthpiece
(silver-plated brass Symphony cup/back-bore permanently bonded to a 32.9mm #2 profile stainless steel rim)
will not feature a gold-tone titanium-coated rim. That stainless steel rim will remain not-coated.
Also, I can have not-coated rims made for anyone, if I don't happen to already have them stocked in a given size/profile.

Where's the best place to look these days for all the Sellmansberger mouthpiece options?

I will try to spend two or three hours soon and put together a nice page to place in this forum… and better (with pictures) than the one that I requested be taken down in the old forum.
I’m going to strive to make it a little bit easier to understand and access than another place online, which tends towards the technical.
People think I’m a weirdo for not having a website; I know they are right. That having been said, I am already bombarded from so many directions with so many ways for people to get in touch electronically… I could only imagine that a website would cause me to have another full-time job - just administering to it.
In the past, both of us really busted our butts...a bare minimum of 100 hours a week - working every week of the year. We made a lot more money, but half of it was confiscated by various government entities: local/state/federal

Here’s another reason why I decided just to have most all of the new rims gold-tone titanium coated:
...or maybe - at least - a better explanation...

When/if someone orders an uncoated rim, it’s pretty easy to make one from a blank, and – at that point - it’s ready to ship, with no several-weeks additional delay (sending off to the coating place).
