Overview

Many options help compliment your playing ability.

Renold O. Schilke had a profound influence on the development of brass mouthpiece design and pedagogy in the 20th century. His wisdom and insight have influenced several generations of performers, educators and students while setting the standard for other manufacturers.

Today, Schilke Music Products continues to offer the highest level of expertise in assisting musicians when determining what mouthpiece might work best for their playing needs. A mouthpiece is created of several components or variables that greatly influence a player’s sound.

These variables include rim contour or rim shape, inner rim diameter or cup diameter, cup shape or cup volume, the throat, the backbore and shank or stem. All of these components play a major role in the final sound production on a brass instrument.

General knowledge of these concepts and how they work can only assist the player in selecting equipment that improves their sound.

    15A4: 17.14mm, .675 inch cup diameter; 27 throat. Same as the 15A4a but with a larger c-backbore for an open feel.
    15B: 17.12mm, .674 inch cup diameter; 26 throat. With the same diameter as the model 15, this mouthpiece includes B style cup which produces a more brilliant sound than the standard model 15 mouthpiece.
    15: 17.12mm, .674 inch cup diameter; 26 throat. An excellent all-around mouthpiece which offers a free blowing, clear sound.
    15C4: 17.14mm, .675 inch cup diameter; 26 throat. This mouthpiece is similar to the model 15 but with the number 4 semi-flat rim for increased endurance.
    16B4: 17.20mm, .677 inch cup diameter; 26 throat. Same as the model 16C4 except the shallower, medium-small B cup offers more resistance, providing a brighter quality of sound. The 16B4 is an excellent choice for Eb trumpet when a player requires a bigger rim diameter.
    16C4: 17.20mm, .677 inch cup diameter; 26 throat. Similar to the 16 in dimensions, this mouthpiece offers a number 4 semi-flat rim for a more traditional feel and increased endurance.
    16: 17.20mm, .677 inch cup diameter; 26 throat. This medium-large diameter mouthpiece produces a full, free blowing quality.
    16C2: 17.20mm, .677 inch cup diameter; 26 throat. This model offers the same options as the model 16, but instead offers a number 2 rim for increased flexibility.
    17B4: 17.33mm, .682 inch cup diameter; 26 throat. Well suited for the player looking for a shallower cup in a larger diameter. Medium-small B cup offers more brilliance for projection with number 4 semi-flat rim for comfort.
    17: 17.33mm, .682 inch cup diameter; 26 throat. A compromise of all the medium characteristics, this mouthpiece is an excellent medium to large diameter mouthpiece.

    17D4d: 17.33mm, .682 inch cup diameter; 26 throat. A larger blowing mouthpiece than the 17D4 because of the increase d-backbore.
    18B4: 17.52mm, .690 inch cup diameter; 26 throat. Ideal for a classical player looking for a commercial sound, the medium shallow cup and semi-flat rim provide resistance and comfort for upper register playing. Cup shape offers some sparkle in the sound with enough volume for tone.
    18: 17.52mm, .690 inch cup diameter; 26 throat. The high point being nearer to the center makes this mouthpiece feel smaller than it is. The standard characteristics produce a rich, brilliant tone.
