For Philip Farkas, the
ideal rim was one that was 'neither too large nor too small'. An ideal
description for these four rims which have long been popular with the many
players who find a slightly larger internal diameter rim
comfortable.

To meet a demand for an
internal diameter that falls between that of the 'AS' and the 'S', these two
most popular rims are now available with an internal diameter of
18.00mm.

The advantages of using
wider internal diameter rims are immediately apparent. More of the lip is free
to vibrate within the mouthpiece, which allows greater mobility over the entire
range and gives the potential for developing a greater variety of tone
colours.
