| Cup | Omschrijving | Backbore |
| S | The shallowest cup with an open entrance to the throat producing a bright and edgy sound but with good response. | 1 |
| Mb | This is similar in depth to the MV, but in a bowl-shape. This helps to create a very versatile cup for all-around playability. The MB is the choice of the player needing more support, but the ML cup is too open | 3 |
| Mv | Medium-depth cup in a V shape. This helps create a free feeling mouthpiece because of the very efficient nature of the cup. The response is quick and the sound can be darker in quiet dynamics, or brighter in louder settings. | 2 |
| ML | This is the standard cup depth/shape within the Hammond Design line. This cup is unique in that it offers the depth of sound of a bowl-shaped cup, but quick response and free playability of a V-shaped cup. | 4 |
| MLx | Same cup and rim as above, but with a 24 throat and #3 standard backbore, for an even more focused sound . Good for C trumpet. | 3 |
| MLH | Also the same exact cup as the ML/MLX, but in the heavier symphonic blank for even greater projection and depth. This is set-up to be very focused and open. | 4 |
| L | A deeper V-style cup for an extremely large, deep sound, but with balancing that aids in creating easier playability for a cup so large. | 4 |
