  •   Model No. / Cup Depth / Rim Shape / Cup Internal Diameter / Cup Outside Diameter / Throat Diameter / Description                                                           
  •   SC / Shallow / Medium-Wide / 16.87mm (.664") / 24.80mm (.977")  / 4.32mm (.170") / Extremely clear high register with clean attacks. Ringing tone but not shrill. Excellent for high baroque music or extremely high technical passages.
  •   MC / Medium / Medium-Wide / 16.81mm (.662") / 25.20mm (.992") / .4.62mm (.182") / No extreme features. Round, ringing tone with a touch of velvet in all registers. Well suited for all-around symphony or solo playing. A very popular model.
  •   MDC / Medium-Deep / Medium-Wide / 16.21mm (.638") / 24.33mm (.958") / 4.62mm (.182") / Sensitive yet comfortable. Good response in entire range. For players who desire a slightly darker tone than that of the SC or MC models. Slightly narrower rim than SC or MC models.
  •   DC / Deep / Medium / 17.07mm (.672") / 24.64mm (.970") / 4.83mm (.190") / Produces very clean attacks and a large resonant but velvety tone. Popular with both high and low horn players because it plays well in all registers.
  •   VDC / Very-Deep / Narrow / 16.71mm (.658") / 23.16mm (.912") / 5.23mm (.206") / Large teutonic tone. This basically dark tone is very helpful for the player who has a too-bright tone since it mellows the tone significantly. For the robust mature player.
  •   XDC / Extra-Deep / Medium-Narrow / 16.94mm (.667") / 24.20mm (.953") / 5.23mm (.206") / Extremely deep cup and very large bore produces a rich, heroic tone. Superior mouthpiece for the player who wishes to play in the grand manner of the "Helden" horn players. Also produces a soft and mellow tone for the player who might have a naturally bright or shrill tone. The depth of this cup will mellow even the hardest, overly brilliant tone.
