not very useful
John Cucco 07.05.2018
Used this adapter to play a Stradivarius Bach trumpet with a 1-1/2C Bach flugelhorn mouthpiece, to achieve a warmer flugelhorn-style sound.

CON
The final lenght of the mouthpiece (mouthpiece + adapter) is far too long compared to a standard trumpet mouthpiece and so the pitch will fall down. Also it will feel very unbalanced and the wind flow will be terribly influenced by this, it will be very hard not to crack any note, unless you use a very small amount of air and really slow wind.

PRO
It won't damage a trumpet pipe and will fit well, also the mouthpiece will fit well in the adapter.

CONCLUSION
Maybe with other gear will do just fine, but with my Bb Stradivarius New York and 1-1/2 C FL mouthpiece worked terribly and i couldn't use it like a wanted.

It does not work with Antoine Courtois mouthpieces
DelCorte 13.05.2021
It does not work with Antoine Courtois mouthpieces, it stays big, and the mouthpieces are loose. They should publish the diameter measurements. It is also plastic, not metal. Too expensive for what it is.
