Helleberg, but not a Helleberg Rim?

Post by tylerferris1213 »

Hey everyone! I have a friend who might need to borrow my Getzen G-50 for an audition. I've used a Helleberg on it for years with much success. However, my friend absolutely detests the Helleberg rim. What all mouthpieces would you recommend trying that have Helleberg proportions but have a different rim? And for anyone with experience on Getzen G-50s, which mouthpiece is your go-to?
