Overview

Trombone mouthpiece with high mass at key points near the throat and backbore.

The Denis Wick DW3180G Heritage Series trombone mouthpiece is reminiscent of the mouthpieces from the Hawkes Company in the 1880s, recapturing the basic principles of their unique design and combining them with modern technology to make them even more effective. The Heritage Series features high mass at key points near the throat and backbore of the mouthpiece to provide power to the sound when needed, plus an innovative upper wall thickness for sensitivity and response at softer dynamics and compensates for the added mass in other areas. This design aids in easier articulation in the upper register and creates a colorful tonal response.

The innovation behind the Heritage series for trombone lies in the combination of increased mass at key points that reduce energy loss with thinner upper walls that provide power and sensitivity at all dynamic levels. The result is maximum sensitivity and response with clearer overtones and improved range.
