Reference Notes
B-series medium cup with oversized 4.6mm grain. Combines the popular 17.5mm diameter with low back-pressure for a darker, more voluminous German-influenced sound. Well-suited to orchestral players who want to move between French and German styles. Use these measurements as a comparison starting point: fit and response still depend on the player, dental structure, instrument receiver, and each manufacturer's measuring method.
