Scott Laskey is a master mouthpiece maker located near Chicago. For many years he made mouthpieces for Schilke. His own tuba mouthpieces are improved versions of vintage designs, and his accuracy and finish work are the best in the business. Laskey offers two cup diameters and five cup shapes. Most are available in the standard American shank style or the larger European size shank. Tuba cup sizes: B--A deeper bowl than the G. Has a wonderful bottom sound H (Helleberg)--Relatively straight sides that blend into a concave funnel as it enters the throat. G (Geib)--Produces a more brilliant sound than the H and works well on rotary valve tubas F--Like the Helleberg cup in shape but approximately 1/3 more shallow C--A moderately shallow bowl cup that is ideal for solo performances on Eb and F tubas.

Arnold Jacobs, legendary musician and teacher, was famous for his sound. This possessed a vibrant core, great intensity and sonority, unsurpassed tonal beauty and unlimited dynamic range. His mouthpiece was unique; refined to a high point of sophistication and efficiency. Surely the most sophisticated tuba mouthpiece ever; elegant in design, live and responsive. The Arnold Jacobs Heritage offers a unique sound, dark in character. The core is clearly defined yet strong and broad. Response is even and flows over a broad compass, the low register is highly efficient and the high range has great stability. Designed and marketed by the Canadian Brass. Narrow rim with clearly defined inner edge, wide inside diameter of 32.7 mm. Deep pear-shaped cup, large throat of 8.5 mm, graduated backbore, fully tapered shank. Silver plate $145 Gold plate $185 |

BY SPECIAL ORDER - Signature Series models available with a gold-plated rim, inner cup, and backbore (pictured abvove). Call for price. |

| Roger Bobo Symphonic | Yamaha version of the Schilke
69C4, slightly larger backbore and rounder rim. Feels bigger than
the 69C4, and somewhat less stable and secure up high, but the low
range is more open for very low notes, low F, pedal C, etc. Feels
brighter than the 69C4, like it's more open and I can blow through
it more. Works well on some F tubas too.
|
$65 |
| Roger Bobo Solo | Smaller tuba mouthpiece for F tubas, a bit shallower, but with the same decently wide cup diameter as the Bobo Symphonic. | $65 |
| Roger Bobo Tenor Tuba | The tuba player's euphonium mouthpiece. Can work on cimbasso. Not a good bass trombone mouthpiece. Tuba sized rim with a 1.5G cup, large bass trombone size shank. | $65 |
| Jim Self | Large but light sounding tuba mp, similar to a deep Mirafone C3 with a C4 rim. Big sound, larger mouthpiece than the Bobo. | $65 |
|
Among the most famous tuba mouthpieces in the world
is the Conn Helleberg. Designed by Mr. Helleberg, the tubist with the John Phillip
Sousa Band, the Helleberg mouthpiece is known for its very deep, organ-like
tone. The Helleberg 7B is a slightly narrower version of the standard model.
Made in Germany for Conn-Selmer. |
