Overview

A great choice for the classical-focused player.

The Denis Wick DW3181 Heritage Series Cornet Mouthpiece are now available after the success of the Heritage trombone line. The new shape of the Heritage Cornet mouthpiece has a large amount of mass around the throat and backbore, with thinner walls towards the rim. This design makes the mouthpiece very responsive at soft dynamics and in the upper register with easy articulation, while producing a massive sound in the lower register and at loud dynamics. A great choice for the classical-focused player, the Denis Wick Heritage Series cornet mouthpieces are available in the same sizes as the standard Denis Wick Classic mouthpieces and are available in silver plate finish with a 23k gold rim, cup and backbore.
