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
Laskey 80MC Trumpet Mouthpiece
The Laskey 80MC Trumpet Mouthpiece features a 17.27 mm rim inner diameter, a standard #27 (3.66 mm) throat, and an 8.38 mm backbore with the Classic Series MC (medium-shallow, double cup) design. This configuration combines a responsive initial feel with added tonal depth, offering a balance of clarity and richness.
The MC cup design incorporates a moderately shallow first chamber for quick response and clean articulation, followed by a secondary chamber that enhances warmth and harmonic complexity. This results in a centered, flexible tone that works well across a variety of musical settings, including jazz, commercial, ensemble, and solo playing.
The 17.27 mm rim provides a wide, stable feel on the embouchure, supporting endurance and control during extended performance. Combined with the standard throat and backbore, the 80MC promotes efficient airflow, smooth response, and consistent performance throughout the entire range.
