Mouthpiece for Eeb and Travel Bbb

Post by Dayv »

For years i've been using a Parker London 26S mouthpiece on my Mirafon Eeb front-bell. Now the plating is going, so maybe it's best to replace it, although it's no longer in production. The internal diameter is 30 mm +/- and it's deep. I also find it good for my Wessex Mighty Midget Bbb. I don't like buying without trying, so i'm wondering if anyone out there plays small tuba mouthpieces and could suggest an option....

If you were looking for something similar, the Denis Wick 5 would be the best option I think. Cup diameter is 30mm and it is deep.

Having it replated is usually not extremely expensive if you still like the mouthpiece. Sorry about the previous spelling error. Replated, not replaced.
