Content | The throat design brings greater focus to the air flow, allowing greater density of sound and an expansion of the array of timbres. The small opening of the Focus improves control and provides wide flexibility to the entire range. A balanced distribution of spatial volume facilitates the tone's natural resonance. | The only difference between the Traditional and Profile 88 mouthpieces is in the exterior angle of the beak. Therefore, the musician is free to choose the model providing the most comfort. See Drawing at bottom of page.
