Model No. Depth of Cup Approx. Cup Dia. Rim Shape Description

7 Medium 17.25mm Narrow Fairly large size, for a strong embouchure.
7S Medium 17.25mm Narrow Same as No. 7 but with larger throat and backbore. Freer blowing, darker sound.
10 Deep 16.80mm Medium wide This cushion-rim model produces the German romantic horn tone, rich in volume, beautiful in quality. A player having no difficulty with the high register should use this model.
10S Deep 16.80mm Medium wide Same as No. 10 but with larger throat and backbore.
11 Medium 16.55mm Medium wide Our best selling model, with cushion rim, and brilliant heroic tone. Players who do strenuous work prefer this model.
12 Medium 16.50mm Narrow This rim gives greater flexibility to players with a rather delicate embouchure.
15 Medium 16.30mm Narrow Medium small. For players with a rather tender embouchure but who nevertheless want a good volume of tone.
16 Deep 16.25mm Medium wide For players with sensitive embouchures who strive for a pure, solid, romantic horn tone.
18 Medium 16.15mm Narrow A small mouthpiece. Needs little strength to fill it. Well suited for weak lips.
