What are the different series of Bach mouthpieces and their unique features?

The Classic Series follows a standardized design, the Artisan Series combines Classic playability with softer rim designs, while the Megatone Series darkens the sound and allows playing at higher dynamic levels without distortion.

What is the historical significance of Bach mouthpieces?

Vincent Bach created the undisputed standard of excellence for modern trumpets and trombones, and his mouthpieces are used in every major studio and orchestra in the world.

What about hitting high notes?

High notes are a function of embrasure strength and practice. Small mouthpieces and shallow cup mouthpieces help with high notes. The 7C is a good size for getting started in trumpet. The 'C' mouthpiece is fairly shallow and is fine for high notes. The best compromise is probably a 7C.

Can I use this in the trumpet?

No, this is for a cornet only. You need a trumpet mouthpiece. You can get a 7C trumpet mouthpiece if that is the size you wish to have.

Please, I Â´m looking for Vincent Bach 7C, is that the same???

Vincent is Mr. Bach's first name. There are three styles of Bach 7C mouthpieces out there, but unless you are a really advanced player, you need the mouthpiece marked 'BACH 7C'. It is much cheaper and the quality is sufficient for your needs.

I need a nickel-free mouthpiece. Is this nickel-free if not, do you have one?

Vincent Bach mouthpieces are machined of solid brass which is a mixture of tin and copper. The finished mouthpiece is then silver plated with real silver. None are nickel plated. Mild soap can be used to clean it. Annually, polish with silver polish if tarnished.

Does this help play higher?

A 1C or 3C or 10 10 1/2C would be better for higher notes.

How to clean this? Please suggest a good solution(soap) and the method

Use a mouthpiece brush and any mild soap. Annually, polish with silver polish if tarnished. Don't polish too often. Wipe with a cloth after each use.
