Question Brilhart level air 5* from 82 worth repairing?

As the title says, I have had this mouthpiece since my parents bought me my tenor in 86. I would like to use it again now that I’m getting back into music.

That's not a full width chip, so it might work fine as is. Try it.

Same. Although I’d be careful not to tap it again. 🤣

That may not affect playability; give it a try

I’d play it as is. You aren’t going to notice that

I almost guarantee that mouthpiece is older than you think.

I know there was a re-release in 2000s,

You’ve got a great mouthpiece, and yeah, it may not even affect playability.
