BlessingFrench Horn Mouthpiece 11 - French Horn Mouthpiece In Silver
Sale
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A silver-plated 11 French horn mouthpiece at a student price. A practical replacement or backup, not a step up in equipment.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Students who lost or damaged the mouthpiece that came with the horn
- Keeping a spare in the case for rehearsals
- School inventories needing consistent, low-cost units
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Advanced players who already know their preferred rim and cup
- Anyone sensitive to silver or nickel plating
- Mellophone, which uses a different mouthpiece
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
French horn shank
Narrower and longer than trumpet or mellophone shanks. It seats only in a horn leadpipe.
Detail 03
Silver plating
Less grabby than bare brass on the lips, and it holds up better against tarnish from handling.
Detail 04
$36.99
Student pricing. Rim and cup are consistent enough for daily playing, without the tighter finishing of custom work.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Mouthpiece only. No pouch, brush, or case insert included
- 02French horn leadpipes vary. Confirm yours takes a standard horn shank
- 03Never force a stuck mouthpiece. A puller costs less than a repair
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will this fit my French horn?
It uses a standard French horn shank, which fits most single, double, and triple horns. Confirm your leadpipe is not a non-standard taper.
02Can I use it on a mellophone?
No. Mellophones take their own mouthpiece with a larger shank. A horn mouthpiece will not seat correctly.
03Is size 11 good for a student?
Yes. It is a middle-of-the-road cup and rim, which is what most players start on before deciding whether they want something deeper or shallower.
04How do I keep it clean?
Rinse in warm soapy water and run a mouthpiece brush through the throat every week or two. Skip abrasive polish, which wears the plating.
