 Yep, it's actually one of several "long cornets" out there. Even though it doesn't have the traditional cornet shape to it, it still has the (progressive) conical bore of a cornet, along with the mellower sound of a cornet. And yes, it does take a cornet mouthpiece as well.

| Re: VINTAGE HORN EYE CANDY By the way, A.N.A., is your Mendez cornet silver-plated? If so, was that a factory option, or did you have it done??  In any case, that's a mighty pretty pair of Mendez's that you have.
