WHF

Post by PPPTB »

Could someone kindly share their thoughts on how the WHF mouthpiece compares to the GRIEGO ALESSI? I’m in the process of selecting a new mouthpiece but haven’t had the chance to try WHF yet. Any insights would be greatly appreciated! :biggrin:

Honestly, I had never heard of them until just now. They don't seem to have any dealers outside of central Europe, with two in Asia.

Unless you're in a place that has easy access to WHF mouthpieces, I'd just go with the Griego mouthpiece.

Similar to WTF?

Looks like they just updated their website with an English PDF. The options they offer are kinda staggering with twelve different rim profiles. I don't see how there would be any way to compare an entire range of modular mouthpieces with the Greigo Alessi line, which technically doesn't even exist anymore, now having been renamed the "artist series".

It also needs to be noted that a modular system is only as good as the design and the person fitting you to the mouthpiece, as there are so many options. Based on what I see, you would need a huge amount of knowledge amount mouthpiece design just to effectively design a WHF mouthpiece based on the materials they have provided.

Yeah I'll stick with Doug Elliot for modular mouthpieces.
