The threaded version of OG Ultimate has been scanned and its geometry (very subtly) justified to be cut to accept threaded rims (ie. to insure that the stainless rims will articulate smoothly at the interior juncture), the (threaded) prototype of it will be here for me to test soon, and we've put in quantities for each of the mouthpieces (in the title of this thread) to the shop...
...so those of you who've requested being on the list for this/that/the-other/"both versions of"/"both shank sizes of"/etc...probably in a two or three (a few short) weeks or so, I'll be asking you folks to pay, but (as in the past) I'm trying to only asking you to pay shortly before mouthpieces are plated and ready to ship out.
...so (thank-you) please be looking for requests to pay sometime in June. and mouthpieces (??) a couple-or-a-few-weeks after that.
We really appreciate your business !!!
also:
Doing the "mouthpiece thing" is sorta fun.
(It beats whoopin' up on and hostlin' nasty ol' torn-up sousaphones! 
) Eventually (as sales cover new r&d), we're hoping to have plated brass threaded "underparts" of the other two (or three) cup profiles as well (which would be accepting the steel threaded rims).
Feel free to message or email with questions, issues, or to be added to a list.
(Email is easier, as this "forum" inbox is sorta full, and I always have to delete one to read one.)
to see that my cost would be a little bit less than a complete mouthpiece..(??)
