What type of reeds work best with the M13 Bb Clarinet Mouthpiece?

Vandoren #3.5-#5 Reeds work best with this mouthpiece.

What is the tip opening measurement of the mouthpiece?

The tip opening is 100.5 (1/100mm).

What is the series and beak profile of this clarinet mouthpiece?

It has a Profile 88 Beak; Series 13 A=440.

I'm just starting to learn clarinet, so will it be ok to start using this with my D'addario 2.5 Reserve Classics?

When my son first started playing he did not use these. After a year he switched to these so Iu2019m not sure if they are for beginners? He liked them a lot and said it was easier to play with these.

Can you use this mouth piece on a Bass Clarinet?

No, this is not a bass clarinet mouthpiece.

Does it fit any clarinet?

I guess it fits all in Bb clarinets and it fits for my Buffet B12 and E13.

Is it easy to transition from an M13 to an M13 Lyre?

Yes, little difference between the two!

What is the difference between the m13 lyre and the m13 mouthpieces?

To quote the Vandoren website, the M13 has a rich colorful sound with very precise response and it meets every demand. The M13 Lyre is more open but with the same qualities as the M13 and can play more easily in the upper register. Its facing gives it a particularly pure sound.

Can you use a size 3 reed on this?

Yes, you can. I have used a size 3 and now am using a 3 1/2. Both work fine, though this question has never come to my mind.

How does it compare w/ the B45?

Vandoren has good information on the differences between the various mouthpieces on their website, http://www.vandoren-en.com/Traditional-Bb-Clarinet-Mouthpieces_a159.htmlrnM13 Lyre : More open, the same qualities as the M13, easier to play in the upper register. Its facing gives it a particularly pure sound.rnB45 : The universal mouthpiece. With an intermediate tip opening and a medium-long facing, it is appreciated by most clarinetists.rn Hope this helps.

Will this fit on a Yamaha?

Yes, it will fit any standard Bb clarinet.

Vandoren CM4158 M13 Lyre 13 Series Profile 88 Bb Clarinet Mouthpiece

The Vandoren CM4158 M13 Lyre is a mouthpiece designed for the Bb clarinet, with similarities to the M13 but plays more easily in the upper register. It has a particularly pure sound and precise response, making it highly recommended for intermediate and professional players. Customers claim that there is little difference between transitioning from an M13 to an M13 Lyre, but this mouthpiece is not recommended for beginners. The mouthpiece evidently provides an even keeled tone and effortless playing, with a few customers praising it for improving their transition over the break. However, it is important to note that mouthpieces are highly individual, and one size may not fit all. Although preferred mouthpieces are individual, a majority of reviewers gave positive feedback and highly recommend it.

Pros

Easier playing of high notes and smooth transition over the break
Improves tone and responsiveness
Particularly pure sound
Suitable for intermediate and professional players

Cons

Not recommended for beginners
Mouthpiece preference is highly individual
