Griego Dave Taylor mouthpieces?

Post by Dablauer »

Hello all,

Forgive me if this is a repeat question, I tried a search and came up with zero. I am curious what people think of the Taylor bass mouthpiece line that Griego is making?

I tried the biggest one and it wasn't for me. Instant response but a little too bright for me.

I haven’t tried one, so I’m curious to how the rim shapes compare to the regular Griego’s.

They reminded me of Giddings Bob Sanders piece. Everything pretty standard Schilke 60 size except the back bore which is humongous.

I tried them at ITF 2017 and thought they were excellent pieces. Personally I liked the GP6 and GP7 more. GP6 being an excellent Laskey 93D sized piece and the GP7 being just a hair smaller and a much better Schilke 60 sized piece.

Note I did not try the Dave Taylor stuff in the various sizes (I'm not sure they were making the other sizes then), I only tried the one that was closest in size to a traditional Schilke 60.
