Schilke Standard Series French Horn Mouthpieces
The Schilke Standard Series French Horn mouthpiece line was developed in collaboration with professional players and colleagues of Renold O. Schilke. These models were later determined to fill a specific need in the horn community from students, to educators, to professional players. The rims and cups shape provide variety of options for the soloist and chamber or orchestral hornist.
Note: Gold-plated Schilke mouthpieces are special orders, final sale, no refunds or exchanges. European shank Schilke mouthpieces are also special orders, final sale, no refunds or exchanges. Please allow extra time for gold-plated and/or European shank mouthpieces to be custom made.
