Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:20296543 | Country/Region of Manufacture: United States |
| Brand: Vincent Bach Corp. | Finish: Silver Plated |
| For Instrument: Flugelhorn or Cornet |
Up for sale is a very unique and very rare custom ordered mouthpiece from Vincent Bach (10 3/4 EWFL) that fits either a Flugelhorn or certain Cornets. I obtained this mouthpiece with a Pre-WWII cornet that I purchased. It works beautifully with this cornet, so I'm wandering if it would work on other vintage horns too. The rim is cushioned but not cumbersome. Unlike the wide and flat mouthpieces that hinder articulation, this piece really performs. The rim slopes... away and down from the alpha angle and it feels so good on the chops. The sound is to die for....smooth, velvety, buttery, and mellow.
My take on this piece is that it has the rim of the 10 3/4 Bach mouthpieces but with the flugel cup. The shank is longer than my cornet pieces so I would say it has the flugel shank. Most importantly, it plays in tune on my vintage cornet. So, I think it would work on some older cornets and most flugelhorns.
I have never seen a mouthpiece like this one. The Bach EW Cup is supposed to be extra shallow, but this piece is a deep "V" shaped funnel....which is like most flugelhorn mouthpieces or like the vintage deep cup cornet pieces. I am torn between keeping this one or selling it. I don't play that much anymore, so, I decided to list it. The 10 3/4 diameter is hard to find on ebay so here is your chance.
I sincerely doubt you will ever see a piece like this one listed for sale. It truly is unique and rare.
