Schilke Standard Series Tuba Mouthpieces are specially designed for BBb, CC, Eb and F Tubas (sousaphones) which require a standard (large) shank tuba mouthpiece.
Schilke makes a wide variety and large number of stock mouthpieces, all of which are included the chart below. They are readily available and are remarkably inexpensive given their consistency and quality.
| Model | mm | inches | Throat | Description | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 62 | 31.85 | 1.254 | 21/64 (.3281") | A superior standard mouthpiece with a good centered sound and easy response in the high and low register with good intonation. Also recommended for Eb or F tuba. | |
| 66 | 31.52 | 1.241 | 21/64 (.3281") | Designed from the original Helleberg, this mouthpiece offers a smaller inside cup diameter but still produces a rich tone quality with a wealth of volume. | |
| 67 | 32.41 | 1.276 | 21/64 (.3281") | Similar to the "SH" model, but slightly larger. The contour is also similar to the #66 but offers improved tonal response. | |
| 69C4 | 32.76 | 1.290 | M (.295") | With a very comfortable wide rim and cup that is not too deep, the 69C4 offers an excellent characteristic sound and facilitates all registers of the instrument. | |
| SH | 31.84 | 1.253 | 21/64 (.3281") | This "Schilke – Helleberg" model offers a rim contour that is different from our #66. This mouthpiece produces a sound that is clear and dark. |
