Anyone have a medium shank Euph mouthpiece in the 5G / 51D range that they would consider selling for a good price? I want to loan my 3 valve besson to a friend, but my mouthpiece has gone missing. Very frustrating

I have a Denis Wick 4AM (gold plated) that I put away after brief testing. If that's close enough for your needs, PM me.

Have you checked the Denis Wick offerings? Mid-size euph mouthpieces are stock items. I have the SM6MU, which is comparable to a Bach 6 1/2 AL in cup inside diameter, but deeper, for my older B&H 3-valve comp that has the mid-size receiver. How about, say, an SM5MU (Steven Mead series, the second M is for "medium shank," the U is for the Ultra series)? The 5 is one size larger than the 6 as you may prefer. The 4 is even larger, with even larger sizes as well. Reference link from the Denis Wick website:

Its not that I can't find one. It's that I don't want to spend thet kind of money just so can loan the horn to a friend, and I don't want to ask him to buy one so he can play it for 3 weeks
Plus I own one here. I just can't find it

The 4AM, apparently the classic Euphonium mouthpiece.

It's 4am. Do you know where your mouthpiece is?
(with the added bonus, since i'm referring to the mouthpiece, i don't have to wait 13 hours and 6 minutes to ask this...)

Well, if she’s telling you to look for your mouthpiece at 4am, she’s not interested.
