Z Cups

The Z Cup has a small cup volume that features a brilliant fat and powerful sound throughout the horn and an astonishingly easy upper register.  

While most "conventional commercial" cups tend to shut off vibrations and have a thin tone, the Z Cups have the chop room to allow for free lip vibrations which produce  clean articulations, and a full commanding sound from low F# to above Double C!

The Z Cup features a higher alpha angle than the S Cup and longer L1 to achieve optimum lip room for vibrating freedom, support for compression and crisp articulation.  

The Z* has a medium bite and the Z** has a softer bite, although, the cup parameters are basically the same.   

This is an excellent choice for commercial playing, big band, lead-work, marching band, drum corps, and recording.  

This mouthpiece will really Zing from top to bottom.
