Dave  I was funnin' around a little bit after seeing someone  say he should 
try a 4C.

The 3E , I agree, would be a logical choice except that every 3E that  I 
have ever seen has a had a very narrow rim with a very round bite.   If it 
were a 3C rim on an E cup I would highly recommend it for a 3C players first 
shallow mouthpiece.

I used to play wide mouthieces but have seen the light.   Only for legit. 
No more Schilke 18 with a shallow cup copies for me (DeNicola).  I played an 
18A4b for several years but have since learned how to use smaller, and 
easier to play,  mouthpieces for lead and piccolo.
