The comparison charts confuses me a wee bit!

Do the Laskey company still make trumpet mouthpieces?

The Laskey 75MC is like a Bach 1 1/2 C.

Here is a source for old new stock. I asked and they don't ship internationally but perhaps it's better to ask yourself.

To me a Laskey 75 rim feels a bit bigger than a Bach 1.5C (your face may feel differently) so you may also want to check a few mouthpieces around that range if you enjoyed playing a 75MC.

I believe the folks who purchased the Laskey company just re-launched their new issues of low brass mouthpieces, with trumpet to follow at some point.

The 75MC would be quite similar to a Bach 2C, the Bach having slightly more cup volume.

I agree that the 75 rim is slightly larger than a 1.5C. Not a huge difference. But, definitely larger.

I play a custom mouthpiece that would be probably equivalent to a 72 (if there was one!) but with slightly less bite. So, it feels very similar to the 75.

The 75MC is a great mouthpiece. Depth is very close to a 1.5C. Laskey’s C cup is definitely larger than a 1.5C cup.
