Im buying my little bro a mouthpiece for christmas. He's a very accomplished guy, just had his audition at NYU on the horn and I think he'd really appreciate a mouthpiece.

He's on his second horn, but still his first mouthpiece. I was interested in the yamaha gp series mouthpieces. (Probably the HR32-GPR)

Problem is, I can't find it anywhere! Anyone know where I can find one in stock? I live in NH, but Im close enough to Boston where I can go pick one up there if I need to.

Thanks

He probably needs to try out several mouthpieces with guidance from his teacher. I like the PHC range but these can be difficult to find in stock (especially some of the Z-cup range).

Have you considered other accessories: mutes; practice mute; tuner/metronome; master class/lessson with an outstanding teacher etc
