Profile 88 vs. Traditional
The 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 which suits his purpose in terms of best playing position, easiest sound emission, greatest playing comfort and the most controllable and precise articulation.
The "13" Series
Vandoren has developed the new "13" Series mouthpiece specifically for American clarinetists. Using an A440 pitch, five models have been elaborated with specific facings to this series: the M13, M13 Lyre, V13, M15 and the new M30 mouthpieces. The "13" series range also expands to other models (traditional facings): 5RV, 5RV Lyre, B40, B45, M15 and M30.
