Large Shank Custom Turbo Series

These Turbo series mouthpieces are designed for large bore tenor trombones and euphoniums that use a large shank mouthpiece. The larger the number, the larger the cup. The Custom series mouthpieces are my most advanced and finely tuned mouthpieces. This is the series to consider if you want to perfectly match a mouthpiece to your horn.

Use these color codings as a guide. Usually, the ‘green’ mouthpieces are the best choice for general playing on the instrument models listed. They are paired to articulate easily and play well throughout the full range of the horn.

If your horn is ‘light’ in some manner, i.e., bell weight, slide weight, leadpipe length or venturi size – or, for slightly less articulation and more ‘ring’ – look for this color and try these model numbers that are five less than the recommended ‘green’ mouthpieces. These mouthpieces will give you a bit more wiggle-room between the harmonics. Tradeoffs include – articulation gets lighter and response/flexibility both get slower as the model number goes down.

If your horn is ‘heavy’ in some manner, i.e., bell weight, slide weight, leadpipe length or venturi size – or, for aggressive ‘lead’ playing, with lots of directionality – look for this color and try these model numbers that are five more than the recommended ‘green’ mouthpieces. These mouthpieces will progressively give you more ‘pop’ but they will also lock you into partials, decreasing the ease of flexiblity as you play higher numbered models. Stablility increases as flexibility decreases.
