Denis Wick Classic Cornet Mouthpiece - Silver Plated

The first Denis Wick mouthpieces were made in 1968, and range has grown so much, that it is now one of the largest and most comprehensive in the world. They are famous for their wonderful sound and brilliant designs, and are produced to the highest technical specifications. Special attention is paid to the rims, which are both comfortable and consistent.

• 2C :  Shallow cup, in the style of an American-designed cornet mouthpiece. Brilliant sound, but with the cornet’s traditionally sweet sound.
• 2 :  Deep cup. Enormous, solid cornet tone for low cornet parts or for strong players on higher parts. 
• 2B :  Medium cup, for strong soloists – more brilliant than the 2. Excellent clarity in the high register.
• 2BW :  Medium cup and wide rim. Same as a 2B but with a wider rim. Great for giving more support for players with fleshier lips.
• 3:  Deep cup. Used by soloists with very strong embouchures – very rich, mellow tone. Helps create the traditional British cornet sound.
• 3B :  Medium cup. Like 2B but more brilliant. Very flexible. Ideal soloist’s choice.
• 3C :  Shallow cup, in the style of an American-designed cornet mouthpiece. The cup is derived from a French trumpet mouthpiece with a v-shaped cup. Works beautifully in the cornet.
• 4:  Deep cup. The perfect cornet mouthpiece. Rich and powerful tone. Very popular in Salvation Army bands, as it gives a lovely blending sound.
• 4B :  Medium cup. The best-selling cornet model – a real thoroughbred which gives the perfect blend of richness, brilliance and projection. Ideal for beginners and top professionals alike. This is the mouthpiece that since its introduction in 1970 has revolutionised British cornet playing.
• 4BW :  Medium cup. Same as a 4B but with a wide rim.
• 4C :  Shallow cup, in the style of an American-designed cornet mouthpiece. Brilliant sound, but with the cornet’s traditionally sweet sound.
• 4W :  Deep cup. Same as a 4 but with wide rim. Gives the perfect traditional cornet sound.
• 4.5 :  Deep cup. Like a 4 but more responsive and easier high notes as the bore is smaller. A popular choice.
• 5 :  Deep cup. This is a scaled-down version of the 4. Smaller cup diameter but with the same deep cup.
• 5B:  Medium cup. Brilliant high register. Good for soloists.
• S :  Soprano Cornet mouthpiece with a shallow cup and brilliant sound. Excellent projection. A favourite in brass bands.
