Mouthpieces like the PT-84

Hi there,
Can any of your recommend or suggest a mouthpiece that is similar to the PT-84. However, with a deeper cup?
Thanks!

I don't mean to seem really obvious, but have you tried the 88? I'm not sure if theres a difference in cup sizes, but I would assume so.

I'd look at the PT-88, or the PT-50 for a more funnel-shaped cup. Both are deeper than the 84.

You want a MPC similar to PT84 only different? Uh...OK
I used it myselves for some time (years back), liked very much the bowl shape and noise I made with it
What are you aiming to achieve?

I apologize. Let me clarify! I am looking for something that is similar to the PT-84 in cup diameter, width, and backbore/throat. However, with a deeper cup. I will look through the comparison charts as well. Thank you!

There is nothing in the PT line close to the 84 but deeper.
You might also look at the wrong places only looking deeper.
That's why I asked what you are looking to achieve sound-vise
VB18 (mega) might do the trick for you, but not really deeper
Difference in performance might be what you are looking for thou.
'nother piece I'd recommend is Blokepiece Symphony. Totally different shape
but still...Might be what you want to achieve.
I also have a threaded (rim) Geib (stofer/kanstul)
Try one if you can look one up. The one-piece probably have to large rim for your need
