Product Overview

About the Gen 3 Design
The top and bottom rims of G3 mouthpieces each have a slightly different shape. The rim is slightly narrower than the Gen 2. The oval cup is also accentuated.
Players report than tbe Gen 3 is more comfortable than the Gen 2 and that it provides slightly better range, endurance, slotting, and responsiveness.
Most players get better performance placing the wider rim at the top and the orientation dot at the bottom, but the mouthpiece can be played in either orientation.
Highlights:
