Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Silver-plated Schilke trumpet mouthpiece, .665-inch cup with a medium C cup and semi-flat number 4 rim. A mid-size all-purpose piece for students and general playing.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Students and developing players needing one mouthpiece for everything
- Concert band and jazz ensemble work in the same week
- Players who lose endurance on rounder, narrower rims
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Lead players living above the staff — a shallow A cup suits that
- Piccolo trumpet specialists; the 11Ax was built for that horn
- Players wanting a very small or very large rim diameter
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
C cup
Medium depth. Adds volume and body to the tone instead of the brightness a shallow A cup gives.
Detail 03
Number 4 semi-flat rim
Flatter contact spreads pressure over more lip. That's why players choose it when endurance is the limiting factor.
Detail 04
26 throat
Standard bore. Blows with familiar resistance, so there's no adjustment period coming off most stock mouthpieces.
Detail 05
Group I sizing
Schilke's smaller-diameter range. If your current rim measures near .690 inch, this will feel noticeably tight.
Detail 06
Silver plating
Standard finish with a little more grip than bare brass. Keep it dry between sessions to slow tarnish.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Mouthpiece only — no pouch or cleaning brush included
- 02Trumpet shank; cornets and flugelhorns take different mouthpieces
- 03A number 4 rim sets differently than a rounder number 3 — expect adjustment
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01What size is a Schilke 13C4?
.665 inch cup diameter with a 26 throat, a medium C cup and the semi-flat number 4 rim.
02Is the 13 size good for beginners?
Yes. Schilke lists the 13 as an ideal choice for a student or developing player, with quick response and enough cup volume for tone.
03How is this different from a 13A4?
The A cup is shallower and pairs with a tighter backbore for upper-register work. The C cup here is deeper and gives more volume and body.
04Can I use it on a cornet?
No. Cornet mouthpieces use a different shank. Schilke's cornet models are listed separately in the Group II range.
