JK French Horn Mouthpieces have numbering from 0 to 4.

Mouthpieces with the number 0 have a rim of 18.50 mm and this diameter decreases by 0.50 with each number, so mouthpieces with number 4 have a diameter of 16.50 mm.

Then they have a letter ranging from A to F.

Mouthpieces with the letter A have the deepest cup and largest granillo, and the letter F has the shallowest cup and smallest granillo.

Then there are the letters M or K.

M mouthpieces are a new version, with a U-shaped cup, and K are the old ones with a V-shaped cup.

The M series is distinguished by a bright sound with clear timbre. This is made possible by a rounder and flatter cup.

In contrast, the deeper cone-shaped cup of the K series holds a classic dark timbre.

Air flows more freely in K models, so if there is some air retention, it is advisable to play with K models.

The mouthpiece rim is flat in the center.

The most intermediate mouthpiece of all is the 2DM or 2DK, the rim is 17.50 mm, which makes it good for horn players with lips from thin to slightly thick.

This mouthpiece offers a good compromise between high and low notes.

If more sound is needed in the mid-low register, letters A, B, or C are recommended.

On the contrary, if good control of the high register is needed, models E and F are advised.

For horn players with thick lips, a good option is the 1FK or 1FM mouthpiece.

These mouthpieces have a generous rim and a high cup, which allows for maintaining the high register despite the large rim.

For horn players with thin lips, models 3 or 4 are recommended.

For thick lips, models 0.
