The Vandoren Black Diamond Clarinet mouthpiece is the latest mouthpiece to be developed in conjunction with professionals, to produce one of the most versatile mouthpieces on the market today. With a brand new internal and external design, this mouthpiece produces a warm and full bodied sound with an even response throughout all registers of the instrument. Whilst remaining incredibly free blowing, the mouthpiece provides a rich compact and dark sound which will help any performer find their own unique tonal character.

Vandoren BD2:  A full, rounded tone which uses the facing design of the M13 lyre. Highly regarded for precision and purity. The closest tip opening and thus rewards using harder reeds.

Vandoren BD4:  Similar sound emission/quality to the BD5 (the original BD design), but the BD4 has a slightly larger tip with a Med-Long facing. We advise comparing the two where possible.

Vandoren BD5:  The original BD design and still them most popular at Dawkes. A great balance of resistance, response and depth of tone. Perfect with Rue L'Epic #3 or #3.5 reeds for the majority of players.

Vandoren BD6:  Ideal for players who prefer a slightly larger tip opening, such as the classic B45 type design. The BD6 has a medium facing length and suits slightly softer reeds than the BD5.

Vandoren BD7:  Designed for players wanting a wide tip opening and thus broader more spread sound. The tip opening is large and thus it suits a softer reed set-up.
