Detail 01
.650 inch cup diameter (16.51 mm)
Mid-size in the Standard line. Same rim as the model 11, so switching between them changes cup, not lip placement.

SchilkeStandard Series Trumpet Mouthpiece Group I 11A Silver
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Silver-plated trumpet mouthpiece. Model 11 rim at .650 inch with a shallower A cup — for players wanting upper-register support without changing rim feel.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Model 11 players who want the same rim with more top end
- Long sets where the upper register needs to stay available
- Adding a second piece rather than replacing a main mouthpiece
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players who need depth and body in the low register
- Cornet players — the 11E funnel cup is the one
- Students and developing players, who Schilke points toward the 13
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
Shallow A cup
Less cup volume than the model 11. Notes speak faster up top; the low register gives up some body.
Detail 03
26 throat
The common throat across the Standard line. Tighter 27-throat A-cup models add resistance for dedicated lead work.
Detail 04
11A versus 11AX
Same rim, but the AX has a 27 throat and x-backbore developed for Schilke piccolo trumpets.
Detail 05
11A versus 11C2
Same .650 diameter, but the C2 uses a slightly rounded number 2 rim contour — a different edge feel.
Detail 06
Silver plating
Standard plating over brass. Durable and easy to clean, with rim wear showing after years of use.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Mouthpiece only — no pouch, case or cleaning brush included
- 02Trumpet shank; it will not seat properly in a cornet receiver
- 03Keep your current piece — a shallow cup usually supplements rather than replaces
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01What is the difference between the 11 and the 11A?
The rim size and contour are similar. The 11A has a shallower A cup, which supports the upper register while trading away some volume of tone.
02Is the 11A a lead mouthpiece?
It has the shallow cup but a standard 26 throat. Models built specifically for lead, like the 13A4a, pair the A cup with a semi-flat number 4 rim and tight a-backbore.
03Will this help my high notes?
A shallower cup reduces volume behind the lip, which generally makes the upper register easier to reach. It will not replace air support or embouchure development.
04Can I use it on cornet?
No. It has a trumpet shank. For cornet, the 11E has a large funnel-shaped cup intended for that instrument.
