LOTUS Trumpet Mouthpiece "Make your life easier" -Lotus Trumpets It was updated to the third generation in August 2023. Lotus was born from the concept of "making it easier and more fun to express the music you play, whatever the genre." The brand was created by trumpeter Adam Rappa himself, and was born from a series of thorough test runs. For trumpets, you can choose from six rim sizes, ten cup depths, and three material combinations. This is a mouthpiece that we can introduce as a new standard, regardless of genre, such as jazz or classical. What is a LOTUS mouthpiece? Incredibly easy to tune and play. Improved tone, accuracy, and durability. Familiar rim and cup make it easy to switch from other manufacturers. Three annealed materials—brass, bronze, and nickel silver—give you more control over tone, projection, and the balance between stability and flexibility. I, Adam Rapa, believe that mouthpiece choice is far more important than the trumpet you play. The mouthpiece is an instrument and a very important amplification device. What we call "sound" is determined more by the mouthpiece than by the trumpet. The mouthpiece plays a major role in determining the range, quality of articulation, flexibility, durability... the intonation of the entire instrument, the resistance you feel when moving air, and more. Your playing is affected more by the mouthpiece than the trumpet. And, fortunately, mouthpieces are much cheaper than trumpets! *This is the product page for the "3rd generation". *This product may need to be ordered.

This cup is very shallow, but provides clear articulation and precise intonation. We were able to create a mouthpiece that could produce a louder sound if required. This is great news for anyone who has struggled with shallow cups until now. If you are used to shallow cups, you will immediately appreciate the excellent tone. Normally, it would not be easy to handle a mouthpiece this shallow. But with the XS Cup, you can easily go big and bold, stepping up and instantly switching from Zippo to flamethrower without expending too much energy. Accessing the high notes is incredibly easy, allowing you to always achieve the sound you're aiming for. If you've been wanting to use a very shallow cup but have been hesitant to use one of the overly harsh and bright tones offered by other manufacturers, this is a great option. [Ideal for the following situations] Lead players seeking easy access to the high register and maximum brilliance. Salsa performers, Earth, Wind & Fire, and Stan Kenton level performers looking to be heard in loud stages. Those wanting to make themselves known as the standout in an ensemble. [Material development] Brass/Bronze/Nickel Silver *In order to take advantage of the characteristics of the cup, the materials available for some models are limited. [Size range] Rim sizes: 1, 2, 3, 7, 9, 11 Cup depth: XL, XL2, L, L2, M, M2, S, XS, XS2 (※) PVD gold coating is a coating method used for jewelry and molds, etc. It can be treated in the same way as general plating. It can be made thin and hard, making it scratch-resistant and able to maintain its beauty.
