The Very Vintage Duck Bill Berg Larsen’s were made in soprano, alto, tenor and baritone.

The rubber versions tend to be quite thick (wide) in the body. They all have a bullet cut chamber and are the rarest of all the Bergs. These are very distinctive both for the long, gradual sloping bite area (though the rubber versions are more abrupt) and their very long table that extends quite a bit beyond the reed. Made in the 1940s, these were the first mouthpieces made by Berg Larsen.
