A brilliantly articulated French horn mouthpiece compatible with most American horns.
The Classic J Series mouthpiece provides instant response and a full range of dynamics. It's designed for solo and high register playing, allowing precise articulation and note definition across the horn's range. The shallow, conical cup produces a brilliant yet mellow tone that will cut through any ensemble.
Immediate Response for Effortless Technique
The J Series' shallow cup requires less air to produce a note, giving you lightning-fast response for rapid tonguing or slurred passages. Notes speak clearly and slot accurately, even in the highest register. The rounded inner rim contour, with its high point towards the center, focuses your air column for stable, centered pitch and supports your embouchure during extended techniques. Overall, this mouthpiece makes advanced playing feel effortless.
A Spectrum of Tone Colors
While optimized for solo work, the J Series mouthpiece provides enough warmth and depth for ensemble use. You have a full dynamic range at your disposal as well as a variety of tone colors. A slight roll-out and drop in jaw pressure takes you from a singing mezzo forte to a rich pianissimo. Opening your throat and relaxing the aperture elicits a velvety legato, while firming the lips and directing air at the rim produces a ringing forte. This versatility allows you to match the mood of any piece.
Premium Materials for a Lifetime
The J Series mouthpiece is crafted from the highest quality materials to provide a lifetime of optimal performance. The gold plate finish resists tarnish and wear, maintaining an attractive appearance even after years of regular use. The mouthpiece is precision machined and hand-finished in the U.S. for an ideal inner profile and facing that cannot be achieved through automated methods alone. All of these premium details come together in a mouthpiece designed to inspire your best playing.
