I have a collection of fine quality vintage cornets and trumpets. Included in my collection is a 1918 Couturier conical bore trumpet. I have only modern shallow cup 'screamer' mouthpieces for trumpet. I fail to understand why my father wasted his money on the such like. I am looking for a vintage deep cup trumpet mouthpiece to not only look fitting with that old horn, but, to help the old trumpet sound like it was intended to sound.
Anybody got such an oddity in their junk box?

I just picked up a Bach 7 C at a yard sale yesterday. It is still too shallow for what I want. I have several old cornet mouthpieces from about the turn of the century thaat are what I want. I guess that I will have to buy an adaptor to be able to use a cornet mouthpiece on a trumpet receiver to get the tone that I am trying to get.

What sizes are the old cornet mouthpieces you have? Maybe I can come up with something very close to those.

The Purviance Mouthpieces by Reeves should have exactly what you need.
