I use a vey old Holton #47 mouthpiece in my Alexander #151. This is an old Eb mouthpiece that looks like a minature Helleberg. Over the past several years I have been collecting small tuba mouthpieces to fit an instrument like this and I found this particular one in a bin at Dillon Music. The #151 just seems to want to be played with a big mouthpiece like this. I have tried smaller ones and the pitch is way too high and the sound is not desireable for me. Again, what I have as a setup is a high tuba in Bb, not a euphonium.
