High
end
mouthpieces
come
in
a
huge
variety
of
sizes,
shapes
and
materials,
all
of
which
have
a
huge
impact
on
how
the
instrument
sounds.
Even
a
small
change
in
the
mouthpiece
will
make
large
changes
in
how
the
instrument
needs
to
be
played
(Tip:
Don't
change
mouthpieces
the
night
before
a
performance
-
allow
at
least
a
few
weeks
to
become
accustomed
to
the
new
mouthpiece).
The
Rico
Royal
mouthpieces
come
in
a
variety
of
tone
chamber
styles
and
facings.
If
you
don't
know
which
one
to
get,
try
the
B5.
Tone
Chamber
Style
(A,
B,
or
C):
The
tone
chamber
of
a
mouthpiece
is
the
inside
area
of
the
mouthpiece.
The
size
and
shape
of
the
tone
chamber
will
change
the
tone
quality
of
the
instrument.
With
the
Rico
Royal
mouthpieces, an
"A"
tone
chamber
will
give
a
dark
sound
which
is
best
suited
for
concert
work,
a
"B"
tone
chamber
will
give
a
little
more
brilliance
(better
for
using
with
most
bands),
and
a
"C"
tone
chamber
will
give
a
lot
more brilliance
and
edge
which
is great
for
rock
and
jazz
bands.
Facing
(3,
5,
or
7):
The
facing
is
determined
by
the
distance
from
the
tip
of
the
reed
to
where
it
first
touches
the
mouthpiece.
The
bigger
the
facing
number,
the
farther
back the
reed
goes
before
actually
touching
the
mouthpiece.
Changing
the
facing
of
the
mouthpiece
will
generally
change
the
volume
of
the
instrument.
With
a
shorter
facing
(3),
less
of
the
reed
is
vibrating,
so
the
instrument
will
tend
to
be
quieter,
with
a
longer
facing
(7),
more
of
the
reed
is
vibrating,
so
the
instrument
will
tend
to
be
louder.
In
general,
we
recommend
the
B5
for
most
situations.
If
you
are
looking
for
a
little
edgier
sound
try
the
C5,
and
if
you
are
looking
for a
darker
sound
(primarily
for
classical
style
music)
try
the
A5.
We
typically
don't
suggest
the
other
facings
without
the
recommendation
of
a
band
director
or
private
instructor.
Mouthpieces
are
not
returnable.
