These pieces (including my Daily Driver the MV 1.5C) are based on classic Bach Mount Vernon and New York mouthpieces. Modernized and optimized by me they give a "classic" sound and play wonderfully!

NY1: This originally started out as a CMM scan of a very early New York Bach 1 mouthpiece. The cup and rim are very similar, the backbore and throat are mated with this cup to produce a very large sound shape. Matched to my O backbore it is a great orchestral mouthpiece! The inner diameter is .677" MV 1.25C: This is my modernized take on this classic mouthpiece. I match this piece with my O backbore and a slightly enlarged throat and throat entrance. It plays incredibly well and also has a very "classic" sound! The inner diameter is .673" MV 1.5C: This is my modernized take on this classic mouthpiece. I match this piece with my MO backbore and a slightly enlarged throat and throat entrance. It plays incredibly well and also has a very "classic" sound! I'm using this for my everyday piece these days. MV 3C: It is a bit bigger all-around (as seen in the overlay) than the traditional 3C. For me it feels a smidge smaller than a 1 1/2C. I also put my MO backbore (smaller symphonic shaped) and a #26 throat in this mouthpiece. The sound shape is tremendous and rich. The inner diameter is .664" MV: This is my modernized take on a classic Bach 2 1/2C mouthpiece. Matched to my O backbore it has a slightly enlarged throat entrance to give a freer blow than the original. The inner diameter is .656"
