Specifically designed for einsetzen players - ie those who play "in the red" or specifically those use their lips to grab the outer rim surface to form their embouchure.
If you play Ansetzen (ie your lips go fully in the cup) we recommend the Rim R instead. We find these can feel quite "sharp" especially in larger sizes and are for players who prefer a narrow rim with a pronounced bite.
The origin story of this rim is an offshoot of a bunch of custom duplication work I got in all at once - all einsetzen players from major symphony players looking for a copy or a small tweak to their favorite rim.. Rims in hand for duplication and it struck me; they were incredibly similar. Every one of them was somewhere between 17.5mm and 18mm, every one had a high outer grip surface, a sharper inner bite and every player told me something to the effect of "I'm so glad you're able to do this I haven't been able to find a suitable replacement in years".
This is the result of a blend of these ideas. It has a narrow high point, rounded curve throughout the surface, a relatively sharp inner bite for clarity, and a high outer grip. They're incredibly easy to grip geometrically and are supplied in an extra slick polish to allow you to move around as you need.
