Description
The Gleichweit B10-3 Bb clarinet mouthpiece is an open Bb clarinet mouthpiece with a medium-long 24 mm facing – balancing a free, open response with the tonal warmth and phrase flexibility of an extended facing.
Precision-crafted on advanced CNC machinery from high-grade synthetic material, the B10-3 combines a 1.30 mm tip opening with a 24 mm facing. This pairing produces a beautifully rounded sound with excellent dynamic range and smooth legato capability.
The built-in O-ring system ensures a secure, airtight fit while protecting the instrument tenon.
The B10-3 is particularly well suited to lyrical and expressive playing styles. Its balanced response allows players to shape phrases with precision while maintaining the fullness of an open mouthpiece.
Every version of the B10-3 shares the same facing and tip opening – only the material, the tenon fitting and the tuning pitch differ. Select your version in the Bore menu above.
