1c Trumpet mouthpiece is still my favorite mouthpiece.
This is the best information on mouthpieces ever. You guys are great!
Good video. I think Harrelson has the most comprehensive mouthpiece solution for players. His approach is based on impedance matching for best efficiency. Gap is one of many variables to get the best solution for the players.
wow jam-packed with so many valuable insights. This was a great interview.
Thanks Stephen! I'm glad this was helpful.
Great content. I have a Courtois Evo I with a gap adjustment "mechanism", it's genius, so simple, and yet it allows you to try infinite settings.
@@javierblanco7467 oh yeah! I’ve remember that horn. Never got to test it. Great idea.
Great information. May have to travel to Wisconsin for an appointment.
@@louisthompson1020 let me know . . . . I may want to ride.
I use a 1c Trumpet mouthpiece I have better luck with it than I do with a 11/4c trumpet mouthpiece. What mouthpiece would you recommend for me?
Very interesting
Awesome video
@@razdog76 thank you, I’m glad you enjoyed it. I hope you learned something new as I did.
Mouth pieces are like fingerprints. No two are alike , just like Trumpets. Everybody's mouth and dental structure , teeth alignment are also like fingerprints all different. You must experiment to find what is just right. The right combination. I have played on 4 mouthpieces in 63 years of playing. Started on a Bach 3C . Evolved to the 1 and quarter and now on a 1 1/2 . Learn to play softly and correctly, establish the low registers and build from there. On the other hand , I watched my friend Mark Gould play the Hummel flawlessly on several mouthpieces he was trying out during rehearsals. I am convinced Doc could play great on a tin can with a kazoo for a mouthpiece. There is no finite solution. It's all individual.
@@theimp5901 yes, this is true.
Back in my day - we had the 3c, the 7c, and a weird 5c - thats it!
@@QuantumOfSolace1 😆 things used to be so simple, right?
Funny, I've been playing with 7C for years and just got both 3C and 5C just two days ago
really want to learn that craft. is he teach to?
Hello, I’m from Vietnam. I am learning high school. I’m using rudy muck 13C mouthpiece. I want to be lotus mouthpiece, which the type of this size similarly. Can you help me.
This may be a question for @lotustrumpets6739
It is alll individual. It is like shoes. Not too big not to small
surely!
Idk Monettes have a big gap and they sound pretty huge
@@jambajoby32 That’s something I was curious about. Have you measured this? Once upon a time, I heard Wynton live. I was sitting perpendicular to his bell and it seemed like his sound was still coming at me. Then he turned and faced me . . . . That’s when all of my hair flew off of my head. 😆 Soooo much sound.
@@ChrisDavisTrumpet I have not but it’s obvious because they’re shorter mp’s
I wonder if it’s adjusted and balanced in the throat/backbone because those too are larger than most.
Monette trumpets, on the other hand, are large in general. Bells, bores, bell spread & more, no matter what, you’re getting a big sound if you’re using air!
@jambajoby32 Monette mouthpieces may be shorter, but they surely took mouthpiece gap into account. What I remember when I tried one (college instructor had a few for the studio to try) is that the mouthpiece shank went in just as far as the mouthpieces we were using. In other words, the length difference was on the outside of the receiver, having little to no bearing on mouthpiece gap.
