So I'm getting an unusual instrument made and I'm told it will take a "small shank, medium bore" Trombone mouthpiece.
What makes a Euph mouthpiece good for trombone, and vice versa?
Or more broadly, what pushes a mouthpiece toward one type of instrument in this similar pitch range?
Found this:

...and for instance the Denis Wick 4AY says "well suited for Euphonium" and the Schilke 51D/52D are "especially suited to Euphonium".
Which makes sense: when I had a Euph, I played a 51D.
...but the Bach 22C and 22D are noted as "good choice for bass trumpet".
Is it largely down to cup depth?
Thanks
