Parduba Double Cup Trombone Mouthpiece - 2.5

The Parduba Trombone Mouthpiece range features John Parduba’s patented Double‑Cup design, a historic innovation introduced in the 1930s to provide players with two cup characteristics in a single mouthpiece. The shallow upper cup improves response, clarity, and ease in the upper register, while the deeper lower cup preserves warmth, projection, and tonal stability in the middle and low registers.

This unique construction allows trombonists to play with less effort while maintaining a full, centered sound, making Parduba mouthpieces especially effective for lead playing, solo passages, and extended performances that demand endurance and control. Despite the efficiency of the shallow upper cup, the double‑cup design avoids the thin tone often associated with standard shallow mouthpieces by retaining a conventional lower cup volume.

Parduba trombone mouthpieces are available in a broad range of numbered sizes, with higher numbers indicating larger cup diameters. The 3‑Star (* ) model** represents a special‑order configuration often preferred by players seeking a balanced feel between smaller and larger sizes. All models are manufactured with Parduba’s long‑standing mouthpiece‑only focus, reflecting over a century of specialized craftsmanship.
