E-1 Tenor Trombone Mouthpiece – The Classic British Brass Band Sound Reborn

The E-1 is the gold standard for that unmistakable classic British brass band sound — warm, centered, lyrical, and powerfully present. This is one of our most beloved and enduring tenor trombone and Euphonium mouthpieces, faithfully recreating the timeless tone of the great British bands (think Black Dyke, Brighouse & Rastrick, Fodens, Grimethorpe) while updating it for modern players. We started with the legendary Bach 5G as inspiration — that iconic cup volume and throat balance that delivers stability, core tone, crisp articulation, and effortless projection. Then we refined it with a slightly larger inner rim diameter to give today's standard for comfort, security, and endurance needed for long contests, rehearsals, and performances without sacrificing the classic character.

Why the E-1 is the go-to for British brass band players:

  • Timeless British sound — Warm, rich resonance with a focused core that sings beautifully in ensemble and solo work
  • Balanced cup volume — Perfect depth for lyrical warmth and dynamic control, with no muddiness or thinness
  • Traditional throat size — Provides rock-solid stability, clean articulation, and the projection needed to cut through brass sections
  • Modern rim comfort — Slightly larger diameter reduces fatigue and offers better support for extended playing
  • Versatile excellence — Works brilliantly in British-style brass bands, concert bands, chamber music, and even light orchestral or jazz settings
  • Premium stainless steel — Hypoallergenic, mirror-smooth, lifetime durable — superior energy transfer for vibrant, consistent tone

Whether you're competing in the National Brass Band Championships, anchoring a section in a concert band, or simply chasing that pure, singing brass band tone, the E-1 delivers the classic sound with modern playability. It's not just a mouthpiece — it's a tradition carried forward, refined for the players of today. Play the classic. Feel the legacy. The E-1 remains one of our most enduring favorites — a true classic that never goes out of style.
