Hi, I have fleshy lips and I can't find a single mouthpiece with a inner rim diameter bigger than 18mm, not even a 18mm, what mouthpieces should I look for?
Hello, I am trying figure out the type of mouthpiece to use for tuba. I have an average lips, currently using Arnold Jacobs mouthpiece. I am having a hard time to play in higher range on my Bb tuba. Notes F, G, A and B are extremely difficult in second octaves. Lower range, I am satisfied with. What type and size of mouthpiece would you recommend for me to use? Thank you

Looking forward to more videos. thank you
thank you for this video. very informative
How Do Know The Next Video When They Are (Not) Numbered?
I'm a fan of Stock. I personally feel the change in tone as the V-based cup goes up in the high notes. Is it something I have to endure to increase efficiency? I'm curious about where Stock chose the V-shaped cup as the standard. And thank you so much for the video. Also, I'd be very grateful if I could see the cross-sectional video of the vacciano mouthpiece!! Always be healthy and happy
These are fantastic videos. Please keep making them! :)
I am so happy and honored to see a picture of my swollen lips at 03:32 😁 By the way, I wanted to say that I finally found out a trumpet mouthpiece I can settle on thanks to you Mrs. Stork! (I am very happy with my 1.5D+, the best so far) The short lesson you gave me via Zoom a year ago (on how the muscles and tongue should be working) was very helpful as well. You are such a great teacher and a knowledgable scholar. Take care 👍
Hello, Thank you so much for your kind words. I appreciate you letting us "borrow" your lips for the series!
John you old fart, Kevin says hi from Spokane.
Glad to hear from you. Would love to talk. The numbers I had did not work.
Can anyone suggest a mouthpiece with an average rim diameter which has a notably sharp interior rim i.e. sharp bite? I'm very interested in trying a mp that has a sharp rim! Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
Amazing video!
Excellent 👏🏾
This video seems to fit trumpet players. For trombone we can double on tenor or bass with the same lips but much larger inner diameter on the bass. Very little air pressure develops inside the cup and the mouthpiece should fit the type of music and acoustic properties of the instrument, also to blend with the section.
Thanks for this video! Excellent food for thought 💭. I think I’d benefit from a mouthpiece consultation with you.
Great video! could you please upload next the video talking about the bore and backbore of the mouthpiece? Thanks for the videos
Please update these videos more frequently and systematically, so that many brass players can have access to this concept..! As a person from a country with very scarce information about brass playing (South Korea), getting to know this brand really brought ease and joy to my playing.
Thank you so much for your kind words! I will do my best to follow your instructions!
Great video, looking forward to the series!
Thank you!🙏
Wish I heard these tips earlier! I’m a horn player with thicker lips and struggled for years on similar mouthpieces as my teachers (many great horn players I observe tend to have thin lips). Moving to larger diameters has made a huge difference!
I thought I recognized CAD!
Good stuff! A good rule of thumb I learned from one of my teachers was to play as low a pedal note as comfortable. Then, choose the smallest diameter that allows you to do this while keeping the inner rim on the skin (out of the red) of both lips.
It also depends of teeth dimension
Thank you Ms. Stork!
This sounds crazy but...I'm teaching myself to play (fight) the Bugle. The mouthpiece..is really small. I've a piece brass rd stock that i had laying around for a few yrs for something special to use it..and turned on my lathe to make my own mouthpiece 🤗. Ive learned a much-needed understanding of the importance of the shape of a mouthpiece. I have been trying to find the optimal size for me, as i have fleshy lips but still at a loss for the correct type for the bugle. Is there any suggestions on a good shape "V" or "C" shaped cup and length of the shaft, including...is the ID tapered, ID size..and love your video's. Thank you so very much & greatly appreciate the time you took to make this video. Facta Non Verba
Really helpful video, I hope the cup film is still in the making! Thanks
Phyllis, just a short howdy to John from Kevin in Spokane
Very insightful!
Glad you think so! Thank you.
An informative and interesting video series. Keep ‘em coming!
Sounds Good Dear Phyllis God bless you Always
Dear Phyllis you are The best
Phyllis is the real deal folks! I know from my own personal, life changing consultation I did with her last year. A true expert in her field. Thank you Phyllis!
Phyllis is amazing! I went up to Stork Mouthpieces in Vermont last year for a "Dr. Mouthpiece" consultation. To put it simply, the results for me were absolutely life changing. She is a true expert in her field, and these mouthpieces are superb. I highly, highly recommend. I am eternally indebted and grateful for the magic you worked that day Phyllis. Thank you. -Drew
Cookie Cutter, wow! I like the French Horn rim (style) course this mp is shaped diff than trumpet ;) Love the models showing the area you are talking about.
Thank you so much Amy!
Thanks Phyllis, as always, you're opening doors and spreading light!
Thank you so much Ellwood! I really appreciate that.
Next episode will talk about HOW to resolve these problems for players. I was awestruck to learn after 30yrs of incorrect mouthpiece sizes. There is hope yet to correct.
Great Intro! Can’t wait for the other videos u mentioned earlier....
Can you show what pulls and ticks look like on a future video
Excellent commentary, thanks for posting.
Very good video. Made things very clear!! Please increase volume on next video.
Thank you and yeah sorry about that. Many of these videos are already in the can, but I think by at least the third in the series we upgraded the mic.
@@mpcsrus I have been using a BT1 for the last year and I love the sound, with no loss of upper register!
@@j.c.197 Holy cow! That is impressive!
I'm a horn player and I've been using a C8 mouth piece but I'm beginning to think I might need to take a look for a new mouth piece since It seems like I have fleshy lips. I've been doing pretty ok with it but I do find I've been having embrocher issues.
Hi Kate. Yes, it would seem that this video might have been meant for you. Chances are that you set up into the inner red of your lips which causes all kinds of problems. Please don't hesitate to give us a call. We'd be happy to talk things over with you! You can find our contact info at the web site here: storkcustom.com/contact-us/
I've been a loyal Stork mpc user for years. This is a very informative video and well presented.
Thank you so much for playing Stork! I'm so glad you liked the video :)
Wish your audio was louder
I'm sorry you had an issue. I will look into it!
The video explaining how to chose the correct inner diameter for brass mouthpieces is illuminating and very well presented. I would especially recommend it for younger players but feel many teachers would benefit from the information presented in this brief video.
Thank you so much for your kind words.
Wish my teachers 30yrs knew this or explained it better 😬
Great mouthpieces!
Thank you!
