Product Overview
The 5MV mouthpiece represents Bach's innovative approach to commercial trumpet performance, incorporating a modified "V" cup design that provides a fuller sound than an "S" cup while maintaining the projection and response characteristics essential for lead trumpet applications. The 16.54mm (0.651") diameter offers optimal balance between control and power, while the special backbore creates the effortless high-register playing that commercial and lead trumpet players require for demanding contemporary musical styles. This design continues the legacy established by Vincent "Bach" Schrotenbach, whose professional experience with the Boston Symphony and Metropolitan Opera informed the creation of mouthpieces that have influenced generations of trumpet performers worldwide.
The modified comfort rim features a flatter top design that enhances stability and reduces fatigue during extended high-register playing sessions, essential for commercial and lead trumpet applications. The outside shape incorporates elements from both Standard and Mega Tone Bach models, creating a unique feel that combines the best characteristics of both series while providing the projection capabilities needed for cutting through dense contemporary arrangements. The #27 (.144") throat ensures optimal airflow and response for the demanding technical and range requirements of commercial trumpet performance.
Bach Commercial mouthpieces are designed to provide flexibility for everyone from aspiring lead trumpet players to seasoned veterans looking for something new in their equipment.
