Description
The Gleichweit 22-3 bass clarinet mouthpiece hard rubber is a French-style bass clarinet mouthpiece positioned between the 19 and Stephan models – offering a balanced combination of open response, tonal body, and expressive flexibility.
Made from premium hard rubber, the Gleichweit-22-3 features a 2.21 mm tip opening and a long 31 mm facing. This intermediate model bridges the gap between the more closed 19 and the wide Stephan, providing a rich, resonant tone with greater dynamic nuance.
The 31 mm facing gives the player considerable flexibility in shaping phrases and dynamics, making the 22-3 well suited to demanding solo and chamber bass clarinet repertoire.
The hard rubber construction contributes a natural warmth and complexity to the tone, giving this model a distinctive character that synthetic versions do not fully replicate.
