Austin Winds Presents the Austin Winds Two Piece Gold Plated Mouthpiece
Our mouthpiece design - This is a heavy mass mouthpiece designed to increase the efficiency of the energy transferred from the lips to the instrument. It is a two piece design with standard threads (Warburton). The rim is unique in that we believe it to be the optimum balance in regards to round vs. flat and an inner bite vs. lack of grip. Too often a mouthpiece can feel comfortable by having a very rounded rim but this in the long run can lead to bad habits such as excessive pressure and a an indented mouthpiece position on the lips. For this reason, our rim is slightly rounded but still allows for movement and a slight inner bite that can help the player feel the proper position on the lips without sacrificing mouthpiece mobility. In using this mouthpiece, a player should be able to easily feel the comfort position but still be able to slide around slightly on the lips for different registers or articulations.
PLEASE NOTE - THE CUP AND BACKBORE ARE SOLD SEPARATELY. IF YOU WOULD LIKE A COMPLETE MOUTHPIECE, PLEASE BE SURE TO CLICK ON "ADD TO CART" FOR BOTH THE CUP AND THE BACKBORE.

ARTISTS MODELS
Keith Fiala Model Mouthpiece - We developed this mouthpiece cup for Keith as a modification of our design. The cup depth is between a Shallow and Medium Shallow but with a shape that keeps the lips from bottoming out in the mouthpiece. We offer it in three diameters - .600, .620 and .640. The cups and backbores are fully compatible and interchangable with our standard Austin Winds mouthpiece design.
