Jim Said:
 I don't dispute Mike Vax's numbers about Schilke's sales of the
13A4a--he should know--but for the last 20 years I'm told the 14A4a is
the largest selling Schilke mouthpiece (whatever the means). In fact,
the only stock flugelhorn 
mouthpiece Schilke makes is the 14F4, which was designed to   provide a 
flugelhorn mouthpiece with the same rim for all those 14A4a players. All
other Schilke flugel mouthpieces are custom made.


==============
Just this past year Schilke added a few more stock flugel pieces they
now offer 6F4, 13F4, 14F4, 15F, 16F4, 17, 18F and 20F as standard flugel
pieces, other sizes are still special order.

Also, as far as sales between the 13A4a and 14A4a, I ran our sales
report from last year and we sold almost twice as many 14A4a's as we did
13A4a's, however, these are by far the two most popular Schilke
models.....
