Tromba1030

I have been playing my schilke picc lately and I don't feel totally comfortable on my mouthpiece. I started with a Schilke 14a4a which came with the horn and I hated it. I quickly ordered a Stork 2P which my teacher uses. (I felt very comfortable on this mouthpiece when I was playing his picc: Stomvi Elite). I had tried it on my horn and it felt pretty good, at least, better than the schilke. I feel like there could still be some improvement, although it is very possible that it is just my inexperience on a difficult instrument. I bring up the Monette idea because I play a Monette B2 on my Bb and C2 on my C trumpet and Eb/D Trumpets. I heard that Wynton plays a monette on his Picc but he changes to a smaller rim. Has anyone played monette mpc's on their piccs? It is probablly worth a try, if I can find one but does anyone have a size recommendation. I will trying an AP2 and see what the same width rim feels like and also an AP5 which is smaller (wyton's picc mpc). Any others?

Thanks,

Jacob
