In 2007 fall, when I accidentally stumbled across a 1940’s Calicchio mouthpiece, I immediately recognized that the hand carved cup had great potential. The inside cup was shaped very similarly to the ones Charlie Shavers and Harry James played. I tried putting it together with my Superchops 1 backbore and throat. The results were even greater than I expected! I invite you to try my second perfectly balanced mouthpiece.

Character
• Full rich sound in all registers
• Plays with greater ease
• More air efficiency
• Beautiful, powerful upper register

The Superchops 3 trumpet mouthpiece has the exact same cup and rim as the hugely successful Superchops 2. The only difference is a smaller throat. The SC2 features a #27. CNC drill while the SC3 has a #29. The result is an exceptionally centered tone with increased clarity and power. The rich tone quality, with spot-on intonation from lowest register to above double high C, is truly astounding. With the easiest performance ever, the SC3 provides the greatest playing improvement for all players. Time needed to switch from Bach 1C or 3C sizes is about 1 to 2 weeks. For more information, please contact me by telephone (718-477-5803 USA) or email (trumpet@i-2000.com).

Character
• Even more centered tone than Superchops 2 mouthpiece!
• Most perfect and even blow of any mouthpiece ever built.
