The Pickett 1.25BC silver-plated trumpet mouthpiece combines a .675" (17.15 mm) inner rim diameter with Pickett's medium-deep BC cup. This dropped-down C-bowl design offers a slightly darker sound profile than the standard C cup, paired with a wider rim diameter than Pickett's 3 and 1.5 sizes.
Consider the 1.25BC if you prefer a wider inner rim diameter and a deeper cup. For the same rim size with a traditional medium-depth bowl, compare it with the 1.25C.
Pickett rims offer a semi-flat, comfortable profile, coupled with a moderately sharp inner bite that facilitates very confident articulations.
These Pickett one-piece mouthpieces feature a #10-2 backbore, which offers that 'classic' backbore feel/blow that many have grown accustomed to. It creates a large sound without losing too much inefficient volume, with just the right amount of resistance for a bold beautiful tone.
Choose between two throat sizes to fine-tune the mouthpiece's resistance and feel. The #27 (.1440") is the standard-size option, generally offering more resistance for players who prefer something to blow against. The larger #24 (.1520") generally offers a more open, less resistant feel and is worth considering if your current setup feels restrictive. Larger isn't automatically better: the right choice balances a free response with enough resistance to feel comfortable and controlled. If you're unsure, start with the throat size you already enjoy, or contact us for help choosing a configuration.
