I recently purchased this mouthpiece, because I'm a huge fan of the 53, and wanted it gold plated! But, after putting it into the horn, and playing. My lips became irritated, and began to swell :pant: (Yay for Gold Allergies!) So I'm forced to sell it, unfortunately :(

Schilke 53 Large Shank: minimal shank wear and, excellent plating - Taking Offers
