Flugelhorn mouthpieces that require the 'French Taper' shank (e.g. Couesnon, F. Besson, others) are made in the original FLG body design.
Classic & Prana Internal Configurations
- Prana mouthpieces allow for the most resonant sound, most effortless playing, and most consistent pitch and timbre
- Classic mouthpieces can feel more forgiving for players who tend to play with a tighter physical approach, or who are accustomed to a non-Monette mouthpiece
Flugelhorn mouthpieces have deep, V-shaped cups and are available with many different rims.
