The Laskey J Series European Shank French Horn Mouthpiece offers musicians a bold, articulate tone in an elegant gold-plated design. Its shallow, conical cup provides an immediate response for solo or high register playing while maintaining a warm, rounded sound. The rounded inner rim has a pronounced peak to give clear note definition across all ranges. Whether you're performing a Mozart concerto or a modern composition, this mouthpiece helps you achieve precise control and projection.

A Shallow Cup for Quick Articulation

The J Series mouthpiece has a shallower cup than Laskey's G Series, allowing for faster articulation and a focused tone. Its conical shape enhances higher harmonics for brilliance and bite, ideal for soloing or playing in the upper register. The shallow cup also provides a feeling of spaciousness in the oral cavity that aids breath control and support. Overall, this design gives you clarity and immediacy of response when you need it.

A Rounded Rim for Comfort and Note Accuracy

This mouthpiece's rounded rim has a contour with a defined peak towards its inner edge. This shape creates a comfortable seating in the mouth that reduces fatigue over long practice sessions or performances. More importantly, its design helps center each note in the harmonic series for pitch accuracy in any range. Whether you're playing a middle C or the highest notes on the horn, this rim contour slots each note precisely where you aim.

A Versatile Mouthpiece for Any Repertoire

While optimized for solo and high register playing, the J Series mouthpiece is versatile enough for any musical context. Its balanced articulation and rounded tone suit the classical repertoire as well as modern compositions. Jazz and commercial musicians will also appreciate its clear note definition and projection. Because it enhances control and tonal focus, this mouthpiece serves as a valuable practice tool for all levels of horn players. Experience the J Series' versatility and use it to refine your technique and push your creative limits.
