Vandoren M13 Lyre Bb Clarinet Mouthpiece, 13 Series w/Profile 88

The Vandoren M13 Bb Clarinet mouthpiece offers many of the characteristics of older American mouthpieces which are so widely sought after. The M13 permits easy blowing with harder reeds and produces a rich, dark, centered sound. The Lyre model is the standard M13 mouthpiece but more open and with a longer facing.

The "Profile 88" was created by Vandoren to offer an alternative to the Traditional profile, or beak. The Profile 88 has a more gradual slope, which gives the mouthpiece a thinner beak. Many clarinetists like the Profile 88 because the clarinet can be held comfortably at a higher angle.

Vandoren has developed the "13 Series" specifically for the American clarinetist using A440 pitch.
