This mouthpiece has minor cosmetic blemishes that do not affect the functionality of the mouthpiece.

  • Characteristics - This mouthpiece is designed to meet the needs of a player who likes the characteristics of the Schilke 20 mouthpiece. This mouthpiece is based on a scan of an actual Schilke 20 with the advantages of our new DOC cup and patented Wedge rim. The backbore is a regular weight ML. The usual throat is a 27 to match the original, but a 25 can be selected.
  • ID at .04 inches into the cup .692 inches OD 1.108 inches

 

  • Standard Brand Design - All mouthpieces in the SB line are made by doing a digital scan of the conventional mouthpiece. The cup and alpha angle are slightly modified, and a Wedge rim is programmed to produce a mouthpiece that has a feel and performance similar to the original, but with Wedge advantages. This mouthpiece has our new Double Oval Cup (DOC). The diameter of the rim and cup in the vertical dimension is 10/1000 of an inch larger than it is from side to side. This means that the oval shape of the Wedge rim is continued down to the base of the cup where it joins the throat. The DOC design, found only in Wedge mouthpieces, provides the added efficiency of a smaller mouthpiece with the big sound, clear attacks, and flexibility of the larger mouthpiece.

 

  • Acclimatization - Acclimatization time varies, but most players find they have fully adjusted to the new rim shape within a few days. Most players are able to alternate between a Wedge rim and conventional rim, although the vast majority of players will convert all of their mouthpieces to the Wedge design because of its obvious advantages once they have adapted. We do offer discounts to players who need to purchase a number of Wedge mouthpieces for various instruments.

 

  • Plating Options - This mouthpieces is silver plated.
