Lotus Flugelhorn FL S 1L Brass 3rd Generation Mouthpiece
Winner - Music Makes a Difference Award
Looking forward to many more years of service
This mouthpiece offers what most people consider the quintessential "classic flugelhorn sound" perfectly suited to any kind of playing, from brass band to Jazz & Classical solos. It's an optimized version of what will feel like a very familiar style of cup.
The big difference is that it actually stays in-tune in the upper register instead of going terribly flat and making life miserable above the staff. Here you get a rich, buttery tone and shockingly easy intonation all the way to the top of your range.
With the option of brass or bronze, you can choose between a sound that's more traditional vs. a more modern, denser, darker tone. Our flugelhorn shanks 100% fit properly into Couesnon flugelhorns. This has been proven true in many many in-person testing sessions.
Special Note: All Lotus FL cups will massively improve the sound of any model of horn, but the FL-L cup in particular is a real game-changer because most players will find this cup depth to be the correct choice. You get an in-tune scale/high C, the ability to truly play higher than high C when soloing and the ability to turn any cheap or mid-range level Flugelhorn into something that sounds much more expensive.
LOTUS L cup is a "standard depth" cup that comes in rims 1,2,3,7 in Brass or Bronze?
We strongly recommend you try our flugel mouthpieces in Bronze. It adds a lot of extra warmth and increases the overall size of your sound significantly.
