Euphonium mouthpiece question

Is there a larger mouthpiece than the 6 1/2 AL that fits the standard size mouthpiece receiver?

Thanks,

Mark,

Yes there are many choices of larger euph mouthpieces that fit any of the three different receivers.

What size receiver do you have?
small shank, same size as the smaller trombones, Yamaha-321
medium shank or euro shank, not too popular, Wilson-2900
large shank, same as bass trombone, very popular

The next step up from a 6.5AL would be a 51 or 51D (size 5). Size 4 is popular, 4AY for small shank, 4AL for large shank... many many more choices...
