Reference Notes
Largest Patterson-l'Olifant cup. 18mm rim transition width (full C diameter) with the 12-bore open throat. Maximum diameter and minimum resistance — a highly specialised setup for players needing extreme volume and tonal breadth. 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.
