I recently switched back to Doug Elliot. Same rim for my bass and tenor and a fantastic Contra mouthpiece.

I played a Stomvi Combi System 7B for years with my King 4BF...

Nowadays, more on Doug Elliott's, Bach's, and a Stork T2 wich is a great match to a Olds Super, playing loud in street parades...

The Yamaha Landgren is really nice too...

I tend to favor rounder rims... so YMMV...

You should open a Mouthpiece museum! :biggrin:
If I start a shop and run it for 50 years I will still have a lot of items in stick.

Hello, I'm new here. I'm returning to trombone after a long hiatus. Presently liking a Giddings Sonny Ausman (stainlesssteel). Have a DW 5BL, a Hammond 12M and a Yamaha 51C4L and a Bach 1-1/2 to buzz on because I'm thinking of switching to or adding bass. I had a Schilke 47, 51, Bach 6-1/2A & AL, 5G and traded them in. I'm enjoying the forum, however, I'm learning that trombonists are like guitar players 😄. So much equipment and so many choices 😁.

I only have one bass bone. Conn 72H.
I find myself using a Marcinkowitz 1 1/2G for big band work. And a Denis Wick Heratige Edition 1AL for symphony and community band application.
Two very different sounds.

I've switched this year to DE on everything except large tenor, and on that I use mostly a Bob Reeves one off, but I do like the DE SYM series G/G8 combo a lot. Changed my vote

I would like to thank Brian Hinckley above for making me feel less guilty about my mouthpiece collection. :good: I also want to concur with those who were discussing having several 6 1/2 AL's and 1 1/2G's that each play or sound a bit different..

I think part of the fun of having multiple same-size mouthpieces that are like separate individuals is being able to find one sometimes that can optimize a horn.. Out of a group of old 1 1/2G's one may work better with one horn and another may like a different one. Sometimes you can go through a half a dozen with a horn and one or two will be clearly better than the rest in how they work with that instrument, but still sound different from each other.
