Mercer and Barker Silver MB2 Goliath (New MB6 Goliath)

Up for purchase is a used Mercer & Barker MB2 Goliath Tuba Mouthpiece in bright silver plate. Mercer & Barker mouthpieces are celebrated worldwide by brass band, orchestral, and solo players for their precision British engineering, exceptional low-register power, and comfortable rim profiles.

Please note on model naming: This mouthpiece is stamped MB2 Goliath, which is the original name for the current MB6 Goliath model in Mercer & Barker's catalog.

This mouthpiece is in good pre-owned condition. It shows normal, cosmetic signs of use including typical insertion marks on the shank and minor cosmetic handling marks on the finish. The rim contour and cup remain smooth and playable, and the shank is true and round. It has been thoroughly cleaned, sanitized, and prepared for its next owner.

MODEL EQUIVALENCY (MB2 GOLIATH = MB6 GOLIATH) Mercer & Barker originally designated this Goliath profile as the MB2 before updating the model designation to the MB6 Goliath in their current lineup.
