What size backbore do I need?

  • 1, 2, 3

    The tightest commercial sounding backbores. These models have a concentrated and intense sound. The #3 is the most popular of this series. If offers a bright, projecting sound that is great for lead players and outdoor work.


  • 4, 5, 6

    Tight to medium. With progressively less resistance, these models produce a bright and very projecting tone. The #5 is by far the most popular with b lead players.

  • Q, Qm, NY, KT

    New in 2004, the Q is the most aggressive backbore, preferred by lead players who also need to maintain dominance in the middle register without spreading or over-loosening their chops.
    New in 2008, the Qm is a slight modification to the Q backbore. A modified taper in the venturi section slightly compresses the air column to increase velocity before releasing the air into the main body of the backbore. The result - An exciting commercial sound with an intense center.
    The NY backbore was inspired by the sound of the old Giardinelli #3 (default) backbore made popular by Maynard and others in the '70's. The New York sound was broad, bright, and acoustically loud - which are also the qualities of this backbore. Resistance is just a bit tighter than our #5.
    Added to the line in mid 1987, the KT backbore appeals to commercial/lead players and is characterized by its projection and secure slotting of notes above high C. The comparative resistance falls in the 4, 5, 6 series


  • 7, 8, 9

    Medium large sizes. The #7 has been the best selling model because it provides a good balance of sound quality acceptable in the orchestra as well as the concert band. Models #8 and #9 are very well received by the orchestra player who appreciates the increased volume of sound with less resistance.

  • 10, 11, 12

    Very large "Symphonic" sizes. These models have very little resistance and offer the b player the potential for the ultimate in full, rich sound.
