The Wessex 'Chief' mouthpiece is the first faithful replica of the original 'Chief' mouthpiece made by Conn in the 1920s.  

This silver plated tuba mouthpiece is ideal for larger contrabass (CC/BBb) tubas and sousaphones, giving at the same time focus, breath and warmth to the tone. 

'Chief' has the same deep funnel cup of the original 'Chief'. Fitted with an American shank, an adapter for use in European shank receivers is also available (and actually improves response on some tubas).

The Wessex 'Chief' tuba mouthpiece, a meticulously crafted replica of the iconic Conn 'Chief' mouthpiece from the 1920s, is the perfect choice for musicians seeking to enhance the capabilities of their larger contrabass tubas and sousaphones (CC/BBb).
