New York Collection Tuba Mouthpieces
These duplications of the original New York Models have proven to be among the most popular of the entire New York Collection . All models are available in the heavy or light weight blank style.
Most of our New York Collection of tuba mouthpieces were used by principal players in New York Orchestras as well as their students.
The BTR model was used for many years by the leading commercial tubist in New York during the height of the recording boom.
All remain popular requests as custom duplications hence their inclusion as part of the New York Collection.
