I tried a 7E when I was searching for a picc mouthpiece and couldn't
play on it at all, so I'm not convinced it's the answer for everyone.
If the 3C is a newer one it's probably small enough unless you're
playing screaming high stuff all night long. I'm tempted to suggest
that you try a bunch of 3C's until you find one you like, but that would
tweak all the Bach guys more than I care to. :-)
If you've got the money you will probably find more efficiency (and
therefore more endurance) with a GR piece. If you're looking for more
endurance I would suggest you visit the Chase Sanborn site and try his
standard mouthpiece. It is very close to your 3C with a little more sizzle.
