Scott Laskey’s legacy in crafting trombone mouthpieces began in 1985, establishing him as a respected figure in the industry until his passing in 2018. In 2019, Backun Musical Services acquired Laskey’s company, taking on the responsibility of preserving his designs while infusing new life into the brand. Today, the company offers two distinct series: the Classic Series and the Alessi Signature Series – designed in collaboration with Joseph Alessi.

The Classic Series pays homage to Laskey’s original designs, faithfully recreating his craftsmanship. With options available for both tenor and bass trombone players, Laskey trombone mouthpieces from the Classic Series reflect the timeless appeal of Laskey’s work and remain popular choices among musicians worldwide.

On the other hand, the Alessi Signature Series represents a collaboration between Backun and Joseph Alessi, Principal Trombone of the New York Philharmonic. This series introduces six meticulously crafted tenor trombone mouthpieces, each a result of Alessi and Backun’s dedication to innovation while honoring Laskey’s legacy. Laskey trombone mouthpieces, both in the Classic Series and the Alessi Signature Series, continue to set the standard for excellence in the industry.
