Before I purchased this mouthpiece I had a Conn Helleberg. Which worked pretty well compared to my school mouthpiece I used. However, I started to desire a better mouthpiece than the Helleberg. A mouthpiece that would support low, middle, and high registers well. Somebody recommended me the Pt-50 mouthpiece and I decided to try it out. It indeed is "The Right Response". Just through buzzing the mouthpiece alone there was a tonal difference between the Helleberg and Perantucci. About two weeks later I went to State Solo and Ensemble and earned a first division on my solo and ensemble. This mouthpiece gave me a darker more beautiful tone. It also gave me more clarity to fast playing on the low register. I recommend this to anyone who desires an all around mouthpiece.

Love the mouthpiece! This is my first mouthpiece Ive owned. It has a pretty big and deep cup, and is much better than the mouthpiece that was sent with my tuba when I purchased it (like hopefully any mouthpiece would be). I'm using this with my Meinl Weston 2145 CC tuba, and it's a great combination. I imagine the same for any BBb tuba. I'll probably purchase a Perantucci when I buy my next one as well.

Hello, I am a high school senior, but I have been playing tube for the past 6 years. I have been testing loads of mouthpieces, and the PT-50, is the most amazing mouthpiece I've ever owned. This mouthpiece gives such a warm, dark tone on any horn. It does not just give you an amazing tone, it is quite easy to articulate with it. It is quite large, it is too big for F/Eb horns, but to me and my Instructor, is the optimum mouthpiece for any BBb/CC tuba. With all large mouthpieces, you get a stronger, cleaner low register, and you need to work harder on the higher register. But not with this mouthpiece, I have a strong nice tone, throughout all registers. Before this mouthpiece I had been using a G&W Bayamo mouthpiece, it was nice, but in my opinion, it cannot compare to the Perantucci PT-50.

I got the PT 88+ mouthpiece on the recommendation of Brent Longstaff, Principle tubist of the Saskatoon Symphony Orchestra, and I absolutely love it. The PT 88+ is really deep, has a large cup diameter, and allows for a dark, rich tone in both the low register and the high register, and seemingly makes the job of getting to the high register easier, considering it's size. Also, because it's the heavy shell model (you can't get the heavy shell models from woodwind and brasswind,) it has more focus in any range, and more attack when you want more attack. I like the PT series of mouthpieces so much, I'm thinking of getting another one, so I own 2 mouthpieces, and for a better range. I'm in high school and got my mouthpiece in grade nine, and would recommend Perantucci mouthpieces to anyone.

I bought this mouthpiece because my principal at my university used it. I didn't use it for the longest time, prefering my Schilke 69C4, but I recently bought the Kanstul 902-4C, their 3/4 CC tuba. I played with the PT 50 and fell in love. It gave my sound such a richness that it now sounds like I am playing on a 5/4 horn rather than a 3/4. The deeper cup requires that you work more on your high range, but low range work just absolutely sings. I love this mouthpiece.
