Cut for Sleeves
Bob Reeves developed his sleeve system in 1973 as a method for adjusting the annulus ("gap") between the end of the mouthpiece and the beginning of the lead pipe. This allows the player to "fine tune" the playing back pressure of his/her set-up. It also allows the player to use one mouthpiece on different instruments that require a different gap.
The correct gap can only be determined through experimentation as it varies from player to player, mouthpiece to mouthpiece, and instrument to instrument. Virtually any trumpet mouthpiece can be converted to use Bob Reeves sleeves. They are available in sizes #0.5 through #7 in half sizes. A #0.5 sleeve will give you the greatest gap. A #7 is the smallest.
If you have your mouthpiece cut for sleeves, be sure to also purchase the sleeves that you need. Trumpet Sleeves.

Description
Blessing 5B Trumpet Mouthpiece
Featuring a 16.25 mm cup diameter with a medium-deep cup and a medium-wide rim, the Blessing 5B offers a slightly deeper design than the 5C, resulting in increased cup volume and a fuller tonal presence. Its medium-deep cup produces a warm, rich, and resonant sound with added depth, making it an excellent choice for players seeking a broader, more mature tone while maintaining control.
The design provides a balanced response with strong core and projection, while still remaining manageable and flexible across the range. The medium-wide rim supports a comfortable and secure feel on the embouchure, and its contour promotes clean, precise articulation. Well-suited as a step-up mouthpiece, the Blessing 5B is ideal for developing players and advancing musicians looking to expand their sound with greater richness and stability.
