John's F Tuba Mouthpiece – Clarity & Precision Power

Fresh  and ready to dominate: John's F Tuba mouthpiece is crafted for the modern orchestral soloist or section player who needs crystal-clear focus, brilliant upper-register ease, and commanding power without fatigue. The medium shallow cup delivers vibrant clarity and punch that sings through dense textures, while the narrower rim width (mirroring the Contra Bass design) provides a secure, comfortable feel for those who prefer less bulk on the chops. This mouthpiece shines on standard F tubas or lighter orchestral setups — effortless slotting, quick response, and a focused tone that projects beautifully in concert halls or recording sessions. Stainless steel ensures maximum efficiency, hypoallergenic comfort, and lifetime durability. Perfect for players chasing lyrical finesse, high-note security, and symphonic authority. John's choice for F tuba mastery — now yours.

Contra Bass Tuba Mouthpiece – Intense Focus & Orchestral Authority

Size | Rim: 1.31" | Throat: .321" | Deep Funnel Cup |

This contra bass mouthpiece is the ultimate foundation tool — a deep funnel cup combined with a moderate throat and narrow rim width creates an intense, focused sound that's dark, resonant, and easy to control from pedal lows to secure highs. The slightly larger inner rim diameter provides comfort and security, while the deep funnel shape generates massive core tone and projection that fills halls effortlessly. It's the perfect balance: huge presence without overwhelming size, making it ideal for large 6/4 tubas where you need to anchor the ensemble with power, clarity, and musicality. John DiCesare's go-to for contrabass orchestral needs — effortless, commanding, and built to last.
