Archive Notes

The Zottola Lead is a shallow-cup Bb trumpet mouthpiece featuring a 16.2mm rim diameter and 3.5mm throat. It has a tight backbore, standard shank. Well-suited for lead and commercial playing. Moved from the active catalog because Zottola mouthpieces are no longer in current production. Historical reference: Zottola archive catalog. 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.

Example: "On my Yamaha Xeno it felt centered, a little resistant, and easier above the staff than my 3C."

Example: "Good commercial piece for me: bright response, comfortable rim, but tiring after a long set."
