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

Classic mouthpieces have a shiny, buffed 24k gold finish

Prana mouthpieces have a brushed 24k gold finish
