Munnstykke Tuba Alliance Prestige 3A

The Prestige models for tuba have been designed by virtuoso tuba player and leading Brass Band conductor James Gourlay for the Besson range of tubas. Jamess years of experience with these instruments have helped him design two mouthpieces of exceptional quality for the traditional BBb and EEb tubas. Both the 1H and the 3A help produce a characterful tone which defines the modern brass band sound.

Designed by James Gourlay, who is one of the finest tuba players to play EEb tuba in the world today. Developed by James for the EEb tuba, this mouthpiece is slightly less deep than the regular 3. It is a blend of bowl-shape and funnel giving a rich, warm tone but with lots of character. This mouthpiece brings out the best in the EEb tuba, making it ideal for both solo and orchestral use.
