Anyone know anything about this brand?

Anywhere I can find info on specs?

Thanks!

They ceased trading some years ago.

I still have my 52BCF which was based on my Elliot LT99/C/C3

Good to know.

I got one through a trade and mine is marked "59C" if anyone has info on that size.

Wasn't it spelled slightly differently?
Were/are these titanium mouthpieces (hence the Ti)?

I found some old posts from Trombone-L in my email archive. (I did not write these.)

I believe that the way they operated was that you sent your mouthpiece to
them and they scanned it and replicated it extremely accurately in
titanium.

also from 2013 wrote:My understanding (and it may be completely wrong) is that this was
operated as essentially an after-hours thing using a tool shop that
makes surgical implants (replacement knees and hips, etc.) And that the
company got tire of the wear and tear on their tooling.

So is mine essentially a custom piece?

Apparently a custom reproduction in Titanium from a scan of a (commercially?) available mouthpiece.

Does it resemble, perhaps a Schilke 59 or a Yamaha 59L?

They had a regular line of mouthpieces. 59 would be 25.9 mm diameter. I do not remember how the cup depth went, but I think it was A (shallow) to D or E (deepest). Not 100% on that part.

I had a number of them, especially when they were going out of business and clearing out inventory in the early to mid-200s. No, I no longer have any of them.

Good to know. I’m still debating if I like it or not…
For those that are curious, here is a picture of it.
