Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

The Heritage Series 2SL is a tuba mouthpiece with a 32mm cup diameter, 7.65mm throat, and funnel-shaped Helleberg cup. It is designed for a clear sound with projection across the register. The wider Heritage construction uses a 1.2mm cup wall near the rim and increased metal at the bottom of the cup, with the series described as responsive and supportive of the high register. Its gold-plated rim and cup sit above a silver-plated body.
