Greg Black mouthpieces typically have a slightly thicker shank as standard, but this "special order" model has a slightly thinner shank compared to the standard. In addition, the external shape is a custom design that combines regular and light weights to match this concept, based on Greg Black's own judgment. 【About Greg Black...】 Greg Black, who received direct instruction in custom mouthpiece production from Bob Giardinelli (founder of Giardinelli), established his own workshop.
