ADAM RAPA

B3F S7

The Adam Rapa shop videos on You Tube have attracted literally hundreds of thousands of views. The mouthpieces we've designed for Adam are now available to everyone. For years musicians have asked us for a mouthpiece between a B2 and a B3 in size with a comfortable rim, a huge sound, and an extra quick response. Here it is: the new B-3F S-7 mouthpiece, designed for Seattle recording artist, Adam Rapa!

This mouthpiece is Adam's main mouthpiece for all around playing. The rim is slightly flatter and has a bit more of a cushion contour than the B3 or B2, with an inside diameter falling between the two sizes. The cup shape is an extreme "Slap" with a relative depth of 5.5 on our scale. This is between the depth of our B6 and B2 models, slightly closer to the B6. The extreme "Slap" cup shape provides a very large cup volume for it's depth, which helps the player produce a remarkably full sound for a mouthpiece of this size. The shape of the cup also provides help in the upper register!

Thanks to Adam for inspiring this new model Monette mouthpiece!
