<p><b>Here is a list of our backbores in order of tightest to most open:</b></p>
<ul>
<li><b> KA3:</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> our newest commercial backbore and it is amazing! Feels almost like the throat is one size smaller due to the compression.</span></li>
</ul>
<p></p>
<ul>
<li><b> KA2:</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> a very nice backbore with good zing.</span></li>
</ul>
<p></p>
<ul>
<li><b> KA1:</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> more core than the A2 and a bit tighter as well.</span></li>
</ul>
<p></p>
<ul>
<li><b> A2:</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> The A2 is a weapon! Designed to be mated with compression mouthpieces.</span></li>
</ul>
<p></p>
<ul>
<li><b> T:</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Tight: commercial backbore which provides the most resistance and "zing" to your sound</span></li>
</ul>
<p></p>
<ul>
<li><b> MT:</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Medium Tight: Provides great resistance, especially for players who tend to "backup."</span></li>
</ul>
<p></p>
<ul>
<li><b> S:</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Standard: Provides the best balance between resistance and sound spread for most players.</span></li>
</ul>
<p></p>
<ul>
<li><b> MO: </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">Medium Open: A great slightly open symphonic shape produces a rich, warm tone but still gives ample resistance when needed.</span></li>
</ul>
<p></p>
<ul>
<li><b> A1: </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">This backbore is a very large, symphonic backbore that is in between the MO and O &ndash; a</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">wonderful backbore suited for the classical player or jazz soloist wishing for a large sound!</span></p>
<p></p>
<ul>
<li><b> O:</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Open: This is a very large, open backbore designed for the orchestral musician to provide the feel and sound spread that most orchestral players prefer</span></li>
</ul>
<p></p>
<ul>
<li><b> OO: </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">Very Open: Huge backbore for enormous, rich sound (takes a lot of air)</span></li>
</ul>

<p><b>Here is a list of our backbores in order of tightest to most open:</b></p>
<ul>
<li><b> KA3:</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> our newest commercial backbore and it is amazing! Feels almost like the throat is one size smaller due to the compression.</span></li>
</ul>
<p></p>
<ul>
<li><b> KA2:</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> a very nice backbore with good zing.</span></li>
</ul>
<p></p>
<ul>
<li><b> KA1:</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> more core than the A2 and a bit tighter as well.</span></li>
</ul>
<p></p>
<ul>
<li><b> A2:</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> The A2 is a weapon! Designed to be mated with compression mouthpieces.</span></li>
</ul>
<p></p>
<ul>
<li><b> T:</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Tight: commercial backbore which provides the most resistance and "zing" to your sound</span></li>
</ul>
<p></p>
<ul>
<li><b> MT:</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Medium Tight: Provides great resistance, especially for players who tend to "backup."</span></li>
</ul>
<p></p>
<ul>
<li><b> S:</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Standard: Provides the best balance between resistance and sound spread for most players.</span></li>
</ul>
<p></p>
<ul>
<li><b> MO: </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">Medium Open: A great slightly open symphonic shape produces a rich, warm tone but still gives ample resistance when needed.</span></li>
</ul>
<p></p>
<ul>
<li><b> A1: </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">This backbore is a very large, symphonic backbore that is in between the MO and O &ndash; a</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">wonderful backbore suited for the classical player or jazz soloist wishing for a large sound!</span></p>
<p></p>
<ul>
<li><b> O:</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Open: This is a very large, open backbore designed for the orchestral musician to provide the feel and sound spread that most orchestral players prefer</span></li>
</ul>
<p></p>
<ul>
<li><b> OO: </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">Very Open: Huge backbore for enormous, rich sound (takes a lot of air)</span></li>
</ul>
