V-Max Bass Trombone Mouthpiece – Grit, Ease & Shimmering
Inner Rim Diameter: 1.120" (28.448 mm) | Throat: .321" (8.15 mm) | Medium Cup |

The V-Max— a modern powerhouse built for players who crave raw grit, effortless playability, and shimmering upper overtones that cut like a laser while keeping a massive, core-rich foundation. This is the mouthpiece that brings edge to big band charts, adds zip to bass bone solos, and gives you that extra bite when the section needs to roar. With a comfortable 1.120" inner rim that feels secure without fatigue, paired with a medium cup for focused core tone and a generously open .321" throat for fast airflow and dynamic freedom, the V-Max strikes an exciting balance:

  • Grit & impact — The design delivers a bold, brassy edge and punch that projects effortlessly — perfect for big band drive, rock-infused low brass, or any moment you need to add attitude
  • Ease & endurance — Super-responsive and forgiving on the chops; play for hours with less effort, quicker recovery, and zero strain — ideal for long gigs, rehearsals, or marathon sessions
  • Powerful upper overtones — Shimmering highs and brilliant partials that sparkle above the rumble, giving your sound dimension, clarity, and that "zip" that makes solos sing and sections stand out

Stainless steel construction supercharges everything: maximum energy transfer, instant response, hypoallergenic comfort, and durability that lasts a lifetime. No mud, no compromise — just pure, exciting tone that feels alive and commanding. Why bass bone players are calling the V-Max a game-changer:
Big band leaders, session pros, and low-brass beasts love how it blends massive low-end weight with crisp articulation and high-end sparkle — all in a package that's easier to play than many larger designs. It's the mouthpiece that lets you grip the groove, cut through the mix, and shine in the stratosphere without sacrificing power or control. Step up to the V-Max — where grit meets ease, and your sound gets that extra edge. Maximum impact. Minimum effort. Pure fire.  Ready to add some zip? Grab it and let the overtones fly!
