Flugelhorns are great instruments.  The mouthpieces are the problem.

Flugelhorns are great instruments.  The mouthpieces are the problem.

We make three distinctly different Cups on the Flugelhorn:

The XL cup:  If you’re searching for the absolute thickest, darkest, creamiest flugelhorn sound, look no further. This is a flugel soloist's dream. It unlocks a whole other level of depth and richness in high-end instruments, and breathes new life into that cheap old horn you’ve been neglecting since high school.

The L cup:  It offers what most people consider the quintessential "classic flugelhorn sound" perfectly suited to any kind of playing, from brass band to Jazz & Classical solos.  It’s an optimized version of what will feel like a very familiar style of cup for most players.

The M cup:  This mouthpiece was designed specifically for players who usually only play flugelhorn in a big band. We’ve spoken with a lot of folks who prefer using a trumpet cup on a flugel shank to help them cut through the wall of trombones and saxes without having to play loud and hurt their endurance.
