Bach Large Shank Trombone Mouthpiece
High quality large shank trombone mouthpiece by Bach. Large shank mouthpieces fit in what are sometimes called symphony tenors - horns with a .547" bore like the Bach 42. These are common in the band world, and the most common size among orchestral players. Some jazzers use a big horn too but not many. Bass bones, .560" bore like a Bach 50, accept large shank mouthpieces as well. If your trombone takes a large shank piece, this one's for you.

"Can't go wrong with a Bach 5G or a Schilke 51D"

The 5G is a solid mouthpiece for Middle and High school trombone/Euphonium/Baritone players. This is one of two mouthpieces I recommend for all my students who play those instruments, and I'm a Euphonium player myself. The other mouthpiece I recommend to my kids is the Schilke 51D. Those two are the mainstay mouthpieces most recommended by people who know what they're talking about.

"bach 5G"

high school symphonic band, jazz band symphonic, jazz northville, MI

i have an older brother who was a euphonium player. when he graduated from high school, i, a trombonist, inherited a few mouthpieces from him. a 5G, 6 1/2al, and a couple 12c's i never use. i specifically tried the 5G against the 6 1/2 and prefer the tone the deeper cup of the 5G produces. i feel that it is a bit more flexible than the 6 1/2 in the sense that it aids the bass register. i pair it with a conn 88HO and it sings in the upper register and can really growl as a jazz bass.

"5G"

I switched from a 6 1/2AL to the 5G and had a big change in tone quality. It's a very good mouthpiece.

"Easy to Play"

This mouthpiece is a very solid mouthpiece. I bought the 6 1/2 AL. I find it easy to play a wide range of notes and dynamic levels. It might not be the easiest to play very high notes or very low notes, but I find it easy to play a wide range of notes indoors as well as outdoors.

"Good mouthpieces but not the best"

Well, during my time trying out trombone mouthpieces, specifically bass trombone mouthpieces, I found them to be very moderate. The mouthpiece I tried was the 2G. It?s a versatile mouthpiece. Both high and low registers can be played fairly easily, although the exterior design could be more eye-catching. My "visiting artist" from my high school was there and he was listening to which mouthpiece sounded best for me. He said through his experience the tone from the Bach mouthpieces is bland. He said there isn?t a unique sound or an "edge" to it. The band department rep at the music store (who studied bass trombone) said they're a solid mouthpiece and that they are easy to play and work with. He said that the 2G is ok for me but since I?m a tuba major he said I don?t really need a really good mouthpiece since it would be more work to get the unique sound and that I don?t play bass trombone all the time. *Extra info (Top 3 mouthpieces (in order) I tried that was best for me were the "Denis Wick 0AL", "Marcinkiewicz 3" and "Bach 2G")
