Cup Descriptions

S cups are slightly shallower than Bach C cups and produce a sparkling, compact sound. Good for commercial and big band lead work.

C cups are based on an old New York design. Excellent for all-around work.

M cups are slightly deeper and more conical than the C cups. You can attain a deeper, richer tone when it's required

D cups are designed for orchestral tenor and bass trombone where a dark, powerful tone is preferred.
Diameters are equivalent to industry standards.

Sizes listed in Gray are considered "crossover mouthpieces". Offered in small and large shanks for the player who routinely switches from tenor to large tenor or bass trombone. Throats and backbores are adjusted accordingly.

Throats and Backbores
Mouthpiece Type  Throat Backbore
Tenor trombone mouthpieces .237" (6 mm) #375
C cups .233" (5.9 mm) #375
Large shank mouthpieces .276" (7 mm) #440S
Small shank mouthpieces .257" (6.5 mm) #375S
Bass trombone mouthpieces .296" (7.5mm) #440

The heavier Curry Blank permits a slightly larger throat and backbore than standard. The extra mass allows for a denser, richer tone and greater projection, while retaining control.
