Who the Classic 5M NY Large Bore Tenor Trombone Mouthpiece Is For

The Griego Classic 5M NY is a large bore tenor trombone mouthpiece intended for players who need orchestral and wind band projection and blend with a clear, rich large-bore tonal center. It is especially suitable for the high player who wants a bit more embouchure room from a 5G-style rim while keeping a shallower-feeling cup than deeper orchestral options.

Within the Griego large bore lineup, the 5M is a practical middle-ground: the rim feel will be familiar to many 5G users, while the cup design supports efficient upper-register response without giving up the large-bore character that complements other brass instruments in section playing.
