This is not definitive. If the problem is really with embouchure or air support, you'll likely get similar results on several different mouthpieces -- unless they're REALLY different, like a Schilke 52D vs. a Schilke 60. And even then, if you find a difference that's helpful, this may not be the way to proceed if the real problem is embouchure or air support.
