They are a little more difficult to control, but the extra effort repays dividends. The inner rim contours are a little rounder for players who need to spend long hours in practice or performance. Much research has gone into the subtle reworking of the exterior shape to give even more powerful maximum dynamics and volume in all registers. 1XL Large Fitting 32.50mm 47.35mm 7.48mm 8.43mm open 2XL Large Fitting 32.00mm 47.35mm 7.73mm 8.45mm open 3XL Large Fitting 31.25mm 47.35mm 8.11mm 8.78mm large barrel Denis Wick Mouthpieces (Table 2) Tuba Mouthpiece Descriptions 1 For all large tubas.
