A facing is a personality with a great many aspects. That's why refacings always demand close consultations. Not only the response of an instrument but its sonority as well are determined for a large part by the facing. For this reason alone it is imperative to be clear about the expectations. Whoever buys a mouthpiece does so with its character and all. But when you have your mouthpiece refaced, you have an additional expectation. This makes a complex business subtle as well: sonority namely is very difficult to explain. Naturally, facings are always test played after the job is finshed.
A refacing costs € 110,–.
Mouthpiece tables sometimes turn out not to be flat. Flattening a table costs € 50,–.
'Opening up' a mouthpiece table (including the simple ligature) costs € 75,–.
Both types of ligatures are made conform the shape of the mouthpiece, which means that the mouthpiece itself should be available for correct modelling.
The simple version, which holds the reed with two cork rails only, costs € 25,–.
The one with the metal stamp costs € 70,–.
