Commentary of Standard Line bodyEach Standard Line model can be selected from 4 different bodies. While it is the same rim, cup, throat, backbore, changing the body balance makes the character a completely different mouthpiece. You can choose freely according to the direction of the player, finding the ideal one that is close to the image, or using it according to situations.

Body Type Feature

CONCERTOBody that represents the Standard line of orthodox shape. There is a weight compared to a general mouthpiece, and it has a direct feeling with a sense of blowing. Popular with players of ensemble mainly wind instrument such as wind band and big band.

BE-BOPA body that is compatible mainly with a narrow tube model. It reacts with players' blows without following anything from the mouthpiece side. Popular with jazz players who want to play with sensitivity.

MONSTERContrary to extreme looks, a body with very easy characteristics. Unevenness engraved on the body improves the monitorability for players and makes the dark and hard timbres that are common in heavy weight models bright and symphonic. It is especially popular for orchestra players and bus trombonists.

EMPERADORThe 4th body was lighter than CONCERTO. Ease, controllability and response of the high frequency range are further improved. It shows a very well-balanced neutral characteristic in the thick pipe 7AL to 5GS.
