Chedeville Rubber
The mouthpiece uses Chedeville’s proprietary, purer rod-ebonite material.

Independent shopping perspective
For Bb clarinet, Chedeville’s Umbra gives a darker sound color and less resistance than the company’s Elite model. Its low-resistance approach is intended to keep dynamic range, changes in color, and articulation open to the player. The mouthpiece is made from proprietary Chedeville Rubber, a purer rod ebonite, with CNC machining and indispensable handwork performed in Savannah, Georgia. The title calls out F6, while the description separately lists an F00 tip opening of 95 in hundredths of a millimetre.
