Product Overview
The G3 series refines the Wedge design to give brass players even more control over their setup.
Asymmetrical Dual Orientation: The top and bottom rims feature slightly different shapes, giving you two distinct rim profiles in a single mouthpiece.
Next-Gen G3 Geometry: Designed with a slightly narrower rim and a more pronounced vertical oval than the G2 models for increased efficiency and response. The rim bite is slightly softer on the Gen 3 models.
Customizable Playing Feel: Highly adaptable to your unique embouchure. While playable in either direction, most players prefer positioning the wider rim at the top and the orientation dot facing down.

- The Giannini Gen 2 114D was developed in conjunction with Italian jazz bass trombonist Giancarlo Giannini. The rim diameter is the same as our 1G bass trombone mouthpiece with cup depth similar to the S59 (Wedge version of Schilke 59). This combination produces a very efficient mouthpiece for those players who like a large diameter and cup that is not as deep as our 1G mouthpiece. It provides excellent sound throughout all registers from the bottom of the horn to the high range, with improved upper register support and better endurance for most players compared to the 1G.
Note - Some bass trombones, for example some vintage King models, have an extra deep receiver. If your mouthpiece inserts more than 1.25 inches (31 mm) into your leadpipe be sure to select the BT Deep Receiver option when ordering bass trombone mouthpieces.
