Reference Notes
Based on vintage Schilke mouthpiece dimensions. Unique in the L'Olifant range for its US Morse taper shank and 3/4-36 Giardinelli thread pitch — making it compatible with American leadpipes and interchangeable with Giardinelli rim components. For players transitioning to L'Olifant from American equipment without a complete equipment change. 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.
