I used one for a while with my Willson Eb tuba. I think you get one when you buy a Willson tuba. I had the ME1 which is the smallest one and I think the one that Marty uses on his Eb tuba. I found that it had a strong low register and felt well matched to my horn. The mouthpiece felt a little bit big for the horn. My upper register was weaker with this mouthpiece than with the pt-83 I am using now. I what made the difference was the ME1 was deeper than the pt-83 because I think the rim sizes are about the same. I have not tried any of the other sizes.
