Charlie, contrary to popular belief, used a white Runyon Model 22 mouthpiece, with a 4 facing. His reed choice, however, is more obscure. He would use any kind of Rico reeds he could get his hands on, including Tenor reeds on Alto Saxophone. Getting the same equipment as him won't get you anywhere near his sound as much as years of practice and listening to his recordings a lot will, but if his setup fits you, then it'll help.
