Re: FS: "tenor tuba," trombone, euph, and cheap tuba mouthpieces
I'm having trouble matching up the arrows with the list.
real question: (Before I look online, do you happen to know which is larger: SM2 vs. SM3 ??)

SM2 is larger. It is the largest mouthpiece in the Steven Mead line, at least before they started adding all the "Ultra" designations or whatever.
^ arrows = old receiving blanket for my son that got relegated to the "tuba rag" pile...

Re: FS: "tenor tuba," trombone, euph, and cheap tuba mouthpieces
I have a 3 which I bought back when this line was the latest rage. I've always hated it until I acquired my most recently acquired and currently owned compensating euphonium. It seems to be the best thing for it. I think I bought it so long ago that the new gold price was about what you are asking for this one used in silver.
I'm a cheapskate, but I might mull this over.
I will also check and see if I have in stock that thing in which you expressed interest.

@bloke if you want to work out some sort of bartery-trade-plus-cash thing for that, just let me know.

Re: FS: "tenor tuba," trombone, euph, and cheap tuba mouthpieces
Does British shank=small shank? I have a friend with a Besson Eb that has a small shank receiver who might be interested in your Denis Wick pieces.

Re: FS: "tenor tuba," trombone, euph, and cheap tuba mouthpieces
Not to speak for Blake (but sorta to speak for Blake):
Yes
With an "L" is the larger shank Denis Wick (e.g., 5L). Without the "L" is the smaller shank (e.g., 5)
I use the Denis Wick 5 (not 5L) on my Martin Medium Eb. I like it well enough, but use it because it's what fits.

Yep. No L = small British shank, like what fits on an old school Besson or some old American E-flats, like Mr. Bort's.
Although, the Wicks have just sold.

Thanks, I guess I won't be passing this along to him after all! Congrats on the sales, though!

Re: FS: "tenor tuba," trombone, euph, and cheap tuba mouthpieces
I am pretty sure they are all standard/American shank. I can measure with calipers and let you know.

Thanks, Blake. FYI, my measurement if referring to the outside diameter of the shank's small end.
