This is a medium large size CC/BBb tuba mouthpiece that fills the gap between the Bayamo and the Williwaw. This mouthpiece is great for those who like the Sound of the Bayamo, but want a smaller rim diameter that is easier to control. The Taku is darker sounding than the Williwaw. Ideal for all ensembles and highly recommended as a popular choice for individuals looking for a mouthpiece that can do it all, this mouthpiece projects a warm tuba tone that balances a strong trombone section. Rim is 1.295 and the throat is .325 in diameter, deep funnel shape cup. Taku is a strong, gusty, east-northeast wind, occurring in the vicinity of Juneau, Alaska, between October and March. At the mouth of the Taku River, after which it is named, it sometimes attains hurricane force.
