Product Description
Introducing the ACB Classical Mouthpiece Experience!
Ever wanted to try a bunch of combinations but just didn't know where to start?
Are you on a fixed budget and can't afford to pay thousands?
Have a studio full of players and want them to have something to try out? The metal components would run you around $800 at our current pricing.
We have been working on 3D-printing mouthpieces for many years now and have decided to make this commercially available for the masses. This kit, which comes in its own handy carrying case has 5 tops and 4 backbores for you to mix and match to build a perfect permanent solution for you!
Here's what's in the Classical kit:
Tops:
1C
1.25C
1.5C
2C (formerly our MV3C)
3C
Backbores:
O
MO
S
MT
Tops:
1 Series mouthpieces: Inner Diameter .684
-
1C: This is my take on an older Bach 1C but with an improved throat and backbore combo. It feels significantly more efficient and sounds more energized while maintaining a rich core throughout all registers. This mouthpiece has our standard 24 throat and 10/24 combo backbore.
1 ¼ series: Inner Diameter .675
-
1 ¼ C: This is a take on a great 1 1/4C mouthpiece with some refinements in bore, backbore, and throat. To me it feels more like a 1.5C due to the great efficiency.
2 Series rim (based on our ACB MV3C rim): Inner Diameter .664
-
2C: This is our most popular mouthpiece in the line, the MV3C, re-named for this new line (and we are adding pieces around this supremely popular setup). Another special mouthpiece!
3 Series mouthpieces: Inner Diameter .654
-
3C: My take on a fantastic Bach 3C mouthpiece from the late 60's; I have never played a 3C like it. I think the added mass and proper matching backbore make this a formidable all-around mouthpiece!
Backbore:
-
MT (Medium Tight): Provides great resistance, especially for players who tend to "backup."
-
S (Standard): Provides the best balance between resistance and sound spread for most players.
-
MO (Medium Open): A great slightly open symphonic shape produces a rich, warm tone but still gives ample resistance when needed.
-
O (Open): This is a very large, open backbore designed for the orchestral musician to provide the feel and sound spread that most orchestral players prefer

Classical Experience Moutpiece Box
I bought the Classical Experience Mouthpiece Box. It's a great way to try out different sizes. Despite being plastic mouthpieces, they respond well. It seems ideal for winter outdoor use; no cold mouthpiece. I'm currently playing the ACB 1.5C. The 2C/MO seems like a better option, but I'm still experimenting. With the box, I now also have a plastic replacement for my ACB 1.5C. It's a shame I had to pay VAT and import duties, which made the box a quarter more expensive. Otherwise, it's definitely worth trying.
