Here is some info from the web (please check for accuracy):
The Selmer HS** is a clarinet mouthpiece that gained popularity in the mid-20th century
. It features a medium-short facing and a very open tip compared to the HS* model.
Here's a summary of its features and characteristics
- Tip Opening: While the exact measurement can vary depending on the specific mouthpiece, it is described as being "very open" compared to the HS* model which has a close 1.00mm tip opening. Another source indicates a 1.20mm tip opening for the HS**.
- Facing: Medium-short facing length.
- Sound: Offers a focused sound. It provides a smooth response across registers and has been praised for its ability to produce a controlled, classical clarinet sound. However, some players find it stuffy, particularly on modern clarinets. It's well-suited for cylindrical-bore instruments like the Selmer Centered Tone.
- Material: Made of high-quality hard rubber, known for its superb quality and responsiveness, especially in vintage models.
