I ran across this mouthpiece quite by accident one night surfing around.

The Legends of Brass Tom Smith mouthpieces 1 & 2

They only make the 2 trombone pieces everything else is Trumpet.

I took a chance, and have been pleasantly surprised.

I bought the #1 model. The rim is incredibly comfortable with just enough "bite" so that I can grab the notes

It`s deeper than I normally use but it`s very easy to play with a good upper range

It`s advertised as being around a 6 1/2AL size which normally don`t work for me but.........

IMHO a really great mouthpiece. I didn`t know if anyone had run across this yet and wanted to share

I've got one of those! I think it rather resembles a large trumpet mouthpiece. They play quite well.

I Played it tonight with a very progressive Big Band. I bought my Mount Vernon36 but one of the guys brought a Bach 34 and I played that all night.MAGIC !!!

Anyone have both? I'm curious to the difference between the #1 having a "flatter" rim vs #2 having a "semi-flat" rim. Or is #2 just a smaller size?
