Claude Gordon was so right about every aspect of trumpet education development of trumpeters; his books are testament to his wide ranging knowledge. The Marciniewicz Claude Gordon mouthpieces are beautifully machined and truly give the player the same feel as the trumpet ones. It fitted straight into my Bach Stradivarius shepherd's crook cornet without the need of additional machining (unlike Schilke mouthpieces) and plays well throughout the whole range of the instrument (and the pedal notes). I am delighted with my purchase which arrived quickly after ordering and was packaged to prevent any possible damage. All-in-all a good job team; thank you.

I bought this one to use with my piccolo because it was described as "bright". It fits me perfectly, it has a very nice rim that feels comfortable and doesn't cut into your lip even if pressed hard (but you will not need to press, it respond very easy). It makes playing high notes easy, without making the sound thin and lifeless (like most small mouthpieces). The sound is very bright and open.

I usually play on a Yamaha 16e-s gp and very happy with it. After hearing my college playing on this Neo mouthpiece and admiring the darker sound decided to buy one and give it a try. The quality is very feed as all Yamaha products, it has a dark sound and suits British Brass Band playing, produces a lovely tone and is very good on slotting, it has a comfortable rim. some notes seem a little flat and need lipping up, however it’s early days for me and time should sort this out. The main problem for me seems lack of power, as I play in a first section British Band and although a good section blending mouthpiece it’s easy to be drowned out. When I dep for lower section bands with less power ability the mouthpiece comes into its own providing a lyrical pleasing sound. So in conclusion I...

So, as the title says, I'm normally not keen on Denis Wick mouthpieces - they're too big, they don't respond brilliantly and they're just all-round much more effort than it's worth to play (not unplayable, but they just make you work hard to get results). This one is better - it's still a decent amount of work to play, but it doesn't completely drain you the way a 2, 3 or 4 does... the sound is more easily brightened a little bit, but still has that traditional "brass band" darkness that you're expected to have. Now, it still feels big to me (even though to many players it won't - I play mostly soprano cornet and my most-used mouthpiece is a Reeves 40C which is much smaller diameter than this) but it won't necessarily to a lot of players. The advertised sizes of many...
