I looked at the site.  The rims *appear* to be really sharp - "pointy" (?)

... and they look to be contoured differently on the "sides" (horizontally) 
vs. "top to bottom"?  Wierd.  How do you assure it goes on the same way each 
time.

I can't imagine an irregularly shaped mouthpiece like this.  I know some 
players use them, but... just seems alien.
