I recommend finding the same rim for the mouthpieces of your different instruments. If you play 7c, you will have no trouble finding the same thing in cornet and flugel. The cup shapes will be different for all 3 mpcs. for their characteristic sounds. Since you have a cornet for the mellower tone, you may want a shallower trumpet mpc. for a brighter tone and a little help with high notes.
