YamahaLarge Shank Trombone Mouthpiece 47
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A large shank tenor trombone mouthpiece with a standard cup and 25.25mm rim. A general-purpose choice for orchestral and concert band parts.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Large-bore tenor trombones used in orchestra and wind ensemble
- A player wanting one mouthpiece that handles the full range
- Replacing a lost or dented large shank mouthpiece
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Small shank tenor trombones; the shank will not seat
- Lead and commercial playing that wants a shallower, brighter cup
- Players who need a narrow rim for endurance on high parts
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
25.25mm rim inner diameter
A wide rim by tenor standards. More lip inside gives a fuller low register but asks more of your endurance up high.
Detail 03
Standard cup depth
Middle ground. Enough depth for orchestral weight without the sluggish articulation of a deep bass trombone cup.
Detail 04
6.62mm throat
Moderately open. Lets air move for big dynamics while keeping enough resistance to center notes cleanly.
Detail 05
Semi-narrow backbore
Tightens the sound slightly and adds a little resistance, which helps hold pitch centered at loud volumes.
Detail 06
Standard rim contour and thickness
Rounded, neutral bite. Comfortable for long rehearsals and forgiving if your setup shifts under fatigue.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Check your receiver: large shank will not fit a small shank slide
- 02A rim size change takes a few weeks of adjustment before you judge it
- 03Buy a pouch or case slot; a dented shank will not seat properly
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will this fit my trombone?
Only if your slide has a large shank receiver, typical of .547 bore and larger tenors and bass trombones. Small shank horns need a different mouthpiece.
02Is it good for bass trombone?
It will fit, but the standard cup depth is shallower than most bass players want. It reads as a large tenor piece rather than a bass piece.
03Will it help my high range?
Not by itself. The wide rim and standard cup favor a full sound in the middle and low register. Shallower cups make high playing easier.
04How do I clean it?
Warm water, mild soap and a mouthpiece brush weekly. Avoid harsh chemicals on the plating and never force a stuck mouthpiece out by hand.
