[Trombone-l] Comparable mpc to Laskey 85MD

[Bonemaster]

Why not have the Laskey 'turned down' by a capable repair technician?
There's a way to test it by seeing if it's a good fit but just short or if
it wiggles/pivots from either the top or the end of the shank. If the fit is
even and solid, it would seem to be a matter of turning the shank down with
the exact same taper.
Perhaps Eric S or another lister with this experience and/or skill can speak
to this.

I have a Laskey 85MD that I loaned to a student. On my Shires, it goes
into the leadpipe about 3/8ths of an inch farther than into his Bach 50B3
leadpipe. The result is that his first positions are always flat.

He really likes the 85MD (better than his Bach 1 1/2G), can someone
recommend a mouthpiece similar to the 85MD that would fit in a Bach
leadpipe correctly?
