With a wider rim than the Chocolatero and a tighter back bore and throat, along with a shallower cup this baby zips off the stage and to the back row!

Our smallest jazz piece is similar to a Bach 12, with a sound that cuts, with a brilliant, pure lead trombone tone. The Choco responds with a crisp even feel throughout the range of the instrument. Great for lead playing with a light, agile, pure sound.

The Barber is a medium size jazz mouthpiece similar to Bach 11 sound with a slightly shallower cup. The Barber produces a warmer fuller sound than the Chocolatero. For players who are looking for a mouthpiece with more depth of sound while still retaining even response, great projection, and comfort.

Excellent for those who are looking for a mouthpiece that projects, and holds up well while performing the powerful dynamic contrasts of lead playing. While the core of tone holds together the upper over tones cut through ensembles and allow the soloist to be heard. The rim is designed for maximum comfort without loss of sound, and ease of playability. The Chubasco produces the largest sound when compared to our other jazz mouthpieces, giving the soloist plenty of room for dynamic contrast and artistic expression.

GWC-101 has a slightly larger rim diameter than the Chubasco, but with a cup depth similar to the Chocolataro, and a more open throat that really locks in for people who use a lot of air when playing on the small bore trombone.
