These models are on the larger side of the mouthpiece spectrum creating a deep, vibrant sound with a well-focused center. Conceptually developed to meet the demands of the modern orchestral player, these new models have comfortable rim shapes that provide a nice clarity in attack. The cups on the D1, D2, and D3 are deeper bowl shape cups for players needing more depth in their sound, but provide enough feedback for control.D1: Deeper bowl shape cup that still provides feedback for control. The D cups have smaller, tighter version of the Schmitt backbore to balance the deeper cup. D150: Deeper bowl shape cup in 150 rim diameter. D2: Deeper bowl shape cup in 2 rim diameter.D3: Deeper bowl shape cup in 3 rim diameter.

Schilke knows the importance of possessing the best mouthpiece for the instrument and the player. The Schilke Mouthpiece Numbering Systems are designed to aid students, amateurs, and professionals alike in determining the best mouthpiece for their style, comfort, and performance needs. Initially important is the fit of the mouthpiece. It is necessary for the shank of each brass mouthpiece to touch the end of the mouthpiece once inside the instrument. This creates an even taper from the backbore of the mouthpiece to the inside. Keeping a mouthpiece clean with a mouthpiece brush is incredibly important as dirt can greatly affect intonation. The numbering system for trumpets is divided into four components delineating cup diameter, cup volume, rim contour, and backbore. The cup diameter is the first upper-case number in the system. Most cap diameters of trumpets and cornets fall between .600 and .725. The number 1-25 in the Schilke system represent .005 increments between .600 and .725. The cup volume is indicated by the upper-case letter. Mouthpieces with a deeper cup create the darkest sounds while shallower cups generate bright sounds and are intended for playing in high registers. Within this numbering system A is small, B is medium-small, C is standard (medium), D is medium-large, and E is large. The rim contour is the second number in the system. 1 stands for rounded, 2 for semi-rounded, 3 is standard, 4 is semi-flat, and 5 is only slightly rounded. Most players prefer the #3 rim contour as it is flat enough to create an ideal air seal but its slight rounding allows for some flexibility of play. Rounder rims offer even more flexibility but can be tiring to play. Flat rims feel comfortable to the player but more or less hold the lips in a fixed position. The final small letter in the numbering system indicates the backbore. Tighter backbores are ideal for creating bright, brilliant sounds while larger backbores lend themselves to more mellow sounds. Among the backbore delineations, a represents tight, b is straight, c is standard, d is slightly curved out, and e is large. Using this method, a standard mouthpiece might be represented as 9C3c. However, when all of the measurements are standard, this mouthpiece would likely be represented only with a #9. Regardless of your level of play, use the Schilke Mouthpiece Numbering System to determine the best mouthpiece for your preferences and needs.

The Schilke Trombone Bass Trombone MouthpiecesIdentification LevelsNumbers 40 through 53 for tenor trombone baritone and euphonium. The numbers 57 through 60 are for the Bass tromboneNumbering SystemWhen a Schilke mouthpiece has a standard backbore, rim and cup, only the cup diameter (first number) is shown on the mouthpiece. In the example above only the 9 is necessary to identify the mouthpiece because the C is the standard cup volume, 3 is the standard rim, and C is the standard backbore. Whenever measurements differ from the standard sizes the alterations are shown on the mouthpiece.CUP DIAMETER (First number in label)Most trumpet and cornet mouthpieces have a cap diameter that falls between .600 and .725. Numbers 1 to 25 in the Schilke system represent sections of .005 each between these two measurements. Cup diameters for mouthpieces other than trumpet and cornet are relative to each other with the smallest numbers representing the smallest diameters.CUP VOLUME (First letter in label)In general the deep cup mouthpieces produce the darkest sounds. In reverse the shallow cup mouthpieces produce the brightest sounds and also aid in the production of the high register. The Schilke C cup is a comprise which offers both full tone and ease of production. In switching from one instrument to another i.e., Bb trumpet to D trumpet, it is usually good to use a mouth piece that is .025 shallower in the cup volume with all other dimensions remaining the same. The higher the instrument is, the shallower the cup should be. A player who needs primarily a good range without sacrificing much tone can consider a hollow mouthpiece with a widened 2nd cup. The shallow 1st cup affords support in the top register and the widened 2nd cup allows a full tone.RIM CONTOUR (Second number in label)The 3 Schilke rim has the feel that most players prefer in a rim. It has flat enough contour to distribute the slight pressure needed to provide an air seal but is rounded slightly to offer increased flexibility. Generally a rounder rim will allow greater flexibility but sometimes tires the player sooner. A flat rim often feels the most comfortable but tends to hold the lips in a fixed position, thereby reducing flexibility..
