Classic Resonance & Prana Resonance (standard-weight & lightweight)
Rim Size Comparison: Conventional 3C, 5C, 7C, Schilke 15, and other similar rim sizes
The B6 rim size is the perfect choice for players who prefer a conventional 3C, 5C, or 7C kind of size. Other non-Monette mouthpieces that are comparable to the B6 rim size include the 11B4 and Bobby Shew 'Jazz.'
All of these B6 mouthpieces have the same B6 rim contour.

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
