An amazing gadget you'll want to get for yourself.

⚡ The Short Version

Thick-walled mouthpiece protector tubing lasts longer than the thin stuff, but it's a lot harder to fit on by hand. The thin tubing sold as a blowpipe or mouthpiece protector wears out fast and starts looking pretty rough, while thicker-walled tubing holds up much better.

A cheap pair of ring-opening pliers solves the fitting problem completely. Squeeze the handles and the tips spread apart instead of pinching together, which opens the tubing wide enough to slip right over the mouthpiece.

The same trick works for a practice chanter mouthpiece and for longer pieces of tubing too. A little water or saliva to help it along, and the tubing goes on in seconds instead of the usual struggle.
