Hello,
I played on a Vacchiano 1 for many yers and loved it but it was a touch too big. Now that Stork has a Vacchiano 1 1/4 in their line up, does anyone know exactly what to order to get the same parameters but in this diameter?

I ask as the Vacchiano 1 has a larger throat and different cup when it's stock compared to the Vacchiano 2,3,5 etc. to the best of my knowledge
Thanks

You can simply call Phyllis at Stork and she will explain everything. She knows more about mouthpieces than just about anyone anywhere. And she is a monster player as well.

Order from largest diameter to smallest - Vacchiano line: 1.5, 1, 1.25, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7

Not sure why it's done this way, I imagine it has something to do with the actual rim shapes. The only one I am familiar with personally is the Vacchiano 4 (equivalent to Studio Master 6). It's basically the same as a Bach 5 with a little extra width.

As far as I know, the only difference between these are the diameter and rim shape. A 1C should have the same depth and throat size as a 1.5C, 1.25C, 2C, 3C, etc. These parameters are customizable and are indicated in the labeling. These elements include the cup depth/shape (B+, B, C+, C, D+, D, E+, E), throat size (28, 27, 26, 25), and backbore (T, B, C, D, E). If throat and backbore aren't indicated they default to 27 and B respectively.

Not sure if you've read up on the website, it does a good job explaining things.

You would want to order a 1.25B with a 25 throat and a D backbore.

Thanks.
Phyllis Stork said the appropriate mouthpiece equivalent would have these specs but with the B backbore
