Vandoren Standard Bb Clarinet Mouthpiece

The Vandoren Standard Bb Clarinet mouthpiece is an industry standard for students and professionals alike. The 'Standard' mouthpiece is pitched at A=442hz which is great for:

• Students making their first upgrade from a plastic mouthpiece who need a little help getting up to pitch.
• Players aiming to play at A=442hz. In the UK, it is typical to play at A=440hz. This does not mean that the Standard Vandoren Mouthpiece won't useful when compensating for a longer barrel length. 
• European players.
