    "This small shank Artist model has the same rim as on your large shank Griego-Artist mouthpiece. We feel that we've created a very balanced small bore mouthpiece. The A cup is a great alto mouthpiece. The shallower cup allows this to maintain the desiredquality of timbre without backing up on you physically. For small bore tenor trombones I suggest the A and B cups." -the manufacturer

    The primary objective in creating the Griego Artist line was to provide a great mouthpiece as well as a great mouthpiece series. Each series currently has six cup depths (A, B, C, D, E and F, with F being the deepest) with identical cup diameters and rimshapes. The differences between the mouthpieces in each series are in the cup depths and throat dimensions.

    What this means for you...

    Once you have chosen the mouthpiece that best suits your playing, you should be able to move freely among the other mouthpieces in that series to find the optimal cup depths and throat dimensions to satisfy your musical requirements. Griego has taken great care to keep the specifications of the Artist series mouthpieces exact, and to that end, no alterations were made to the rim or cup dimensions of any mouthpieces produced for previous artist lines.
