Denis Wick Heavy-Top Silver Plated Trombone Mouthpiece - DW6880

The entire Denis Wick range of mouthpieces began with a mouthpiece conceived to suit the needs of the London Symphony trombone section playing in the unhelpful acoustics of the Royal Festival Hall in the 1960s. There is a characteristic of clarity, warmth and beauty of sound which no other maker has been able to match. Intonation and flexibility have been brought to a state of perfection which has helped to create the highest standard of trombone playing ever, in all areas of activity.

HeavyTop models use a completely different principle in not feeding back to the player the vibration of the instruments, transmitting all the energy through the bell. This gives a much more powerful sound when needed, more security in the high register and more control and focus in all registers.
