[QUOTE="KevinM, post: 310574, member: 2318"] I have more than ten Petes at last count, including P-lip and fishtail. I prefer the latter, but have gotten accustomed to the former. The p-lip is okay, I just don't see the advantage and, to me, a disadvantage is extra bumps at the bit. Just remember that the concave curve at the bottom of the P-lip is where your tongue is supposed to fit. Other words, your tongue is the first thing that touches the bit when you place it in your mouth. Then leave it there. My pref for the fishtail is probably because I like to hold the pipe, not clench it. As you can plainly see, this is a matter of piper preference. The folks at Sallynoggin have sold plenty of P-lips. And fishtails. It must be expensive to make the same pipes in two different bit designs. [/QUOTE]
