Product Overview
Top 10 Mouthpiece! Similar to Bach 3E - Excellent choice for an extra shallow lead mouthpiece to complement a Bach 1-1/2C, 3C, or similar “legit” mouthpiece
Highlights:
- Slightly smaller than a Schilke 14A4A, with a shallower cup similar in depth to a Schilke 13A4A
- ES cup provides maximum brilliance, projection, and slotting in extreme upper register playing
- Surprisingly good low register for an extra shallow lead mouthpiece
Specifications:
- Inner Diameter: .660 inches measured .04 inches into the cup
- Outer Diameter: 1.114 inches
- Cup Depth: ES (Extra Shallow) cup (similar to a Schilke 6A4A, Schilke 13A4A, Bach 3E, and GR ES cup)
- Intended to maximize upper register performance when playing commercial lead or similar types of playing
- Produces a bright sound and excellent projection while still maintaining an accessible lower register that does not sound restricted
- Backbore: Comes on a S (Small) backbore
Features of Delrin:
- Feels softer on the chops with more give than metal - ideal for players with braces
- Less slippery than silver, allowing more grip
- Added grip makes delrin mouthpieces feel smaller than their metal counterparts with identical size designation
- More comfortable to play in cold weather
- More responsive than brass, making soft entries more secure
- Articulation less crisp with less point at the front of the note compared to brass
- Darker sound with less core than brass
- Some players may feel slight chop irritation for the first day or two while they adjust - this is normal and should subside
