The only concern is can you consistently hit notes in the low register with a good tone as you can in the upper register?

[@tronridermusic2045]

Not really honestly, anything below mid g sounds pretty bad, but it really does work like a charm for the high notes, you don’t buy this mouthpiece for the lower register, you buy it for the crisp screaming high notes

[@daverogers4607]

​@tronridermusic2045 A good mouthpiece should produce good tone regardless of the register. I think embouchure and breathing are most important. Maynard always sounded great, whether in the lower register, the upper register, or into the stratosphere.

What Blaise is missing out here is the fact that this mouthpiece will only enhance your playing if you're already solid up to double G anyway

[@BlaiseBowman]

Ed Roberts huh try telling that to my friend who increased his range over an octave with this. This mouthpiece works for everyone! It's THAT GOOD

[@f35bitch27]

Lynn and Blaise's truths >>> Ed's bs

[@lynn95441]

Hey Ed....... Playing in the upper register is mostly a matter of air/abs. When used as suggested, the XPiece and Reversible Rim encourage your playing apparatus to do all the right things with your air/chops/abdominals/intercostals/etc, no matter your current range or equipment... As Blaise mentions, 95% of all players use mouthpieces that are too big, so after a short period of time with the tools, you will likely go to a smaller mouthpiece without sacrificing any sound. Success correlates directly to how easily the player can give up conventional thinking, and embrace the MF Protocol.... It's a wonderful process, but can take place spontaneously, if you're open to same..... :)

[@Edsvidhouse]

Blaise Bowman From my experiences with lead mouthpieces, I was told by teachers etc to only get one when my range is solid to avoid ruining any foundational technique. But if this X piece is really that good then mad props to Lynne Nicholson 😜 I'm not hating on your vid, it just confused me a little😂

[@Edsvidhouse]

Cooper M, nice! Was it worth it?

[@-5249]

C. Bush the x piece isn’t the best for tone, it helps with the tone on your main mouthpiece. Mines a monette it’s sooo much better than any Bach I’ve pkayed

[@colebush_2]

Cooper M, what monette mouthpiece do you have?

[@charlestom3873]

I use a marcinkiwicz. (still not sure how to spell it) but it's pretty shallow.

[@TheRobloxianOfTheWorld]

I’m not sure if my mouthpiece is too big for me... I think it all depends on the lips of the players. I play on a Bach 7C mouthpiece, while occasionally switching to a 6B or a King 5C. I’ve been looking to get an 11C or smaller mouthpieces.

[@joshsilvers5454]

you should switch 1-2 year after starting to a bigger one, so the 5c is the best fit.

[@shawnwui591]

Flash Gaming unless you have srsly small lips, like baby small, you shouldn't go below 7c, instead, just focus on using air rather than pushing the trumpet against your lips.

[@CarnivoreLife7]

Blaise I concur... I played a schilke 13a4a for 20 years and the xpiece blows it away...but the real key is using the reversable rim...it teaches you to use your diaphragm and breathe better!

[@BlaiseBowman]

Yes, it's worth changing! I played on a Bach 1-1/2C for years, until I realized how awful it was. The XPiece serves everyone the same way, since it's molded around the MF Protocol. That's the beauty of the XPiece. You have the option keep using your normal mouthpiece, OR you chould adopt the XPiece as your main mouthpiece. Since the benefits of the XPiece/RR's relaxation carry over to other mouthpieces. Even if you play on the XPiece/RR only a few minutes a day, you'll still see amazing results.

[@sggurcs-]

Blaise Bowman Thank you for your response. I love your videos.

[@iangraham-white5717]

Don’t switch until you try it and like it. I have studied with Roger Ingram (Lead for HC Jr. ,Maynard, and many others) 6 years and he would say the same thing

[@jeffalfrd]

It's always worth trying something new, BUT take it from a guy who has been playing almost 30 years. While learning and developing your embouchure it's always best to start around a 3 to 7c depending on your style. That will help you develop your sound and technique really well, it helps build the muscles up and makes you sound so much better. I have a ton of mouth pieces for different uses on a wide range of horns. But if you go to a mouth piece that makes you lazy it will be hard for you to hit high notes in a piece of music that has a wide range from low c to double c. It's most times hard to change out a mouthpiece right in the middle of a sheet. Also it will change your tuning when you do. Best to practice a piece on one mouth piece learn where your slides need to be for tuning. Don't forget about sound!!!!! I played on a bach 6 when I first learned to play I was patient practiced and before long I could start from below the staff and go all the way to double c using just that mouthpiece. And it all sounded great. After I got older and learned how to control the tuning with my embouchure and by listening. I could change mouthpieces between sheets of music depending on need and horns and still have great tuning and great sound.

[@Helmsson1]

jeffalfrd thank you so much for the experienced info. I've been playing trumpet for about 7 years now on a 3c and now am the first chair trumpet in my band with pretty good upper register control and beautiful tone (according to my director). But I graduate this year and want to move to a more shallow cup, or at least one that is better for upper register as I go into college. Should I stick to the 3c and continue working or is it okay for me to move to a shallower mouthpiece? And if it's okay to change mouthpieces, what do you recommend?

[@christiansincich7226]

F. Besson Brevete Kunstal here! arguably the best trumpet in existence to this very day! I currently love my Shilke 13A4A. Just beautiful for high range, but difficult to handle as a young player, but by deveral years of just using it, the double C comes out easy.

Ur Boi 7c are for begining players i recommened a 5c or 3c to enhance tone and range

[@BlaiseBowman]

Switching from a 7c to a 3c does NOT enhance range. 3C is wider and you have to vibrate more to play higher, it's hurting your range. I played on a 3c for waaaay to long, and I'm much happier on the XPiece

[@donsudduth]

So playing on Bach mouthpieces for years (1 1/4 C) - and I went to larger and larger rims for tone quality and solid sound as my playing evolved. What is the quality of tone/sound in the low register for the X piece? Seems that v-cups are difficult to manage consistent intonation as well - but, that was old news so not sure how the technology has improved.

Tone on the XPiece is very good since it forces you to play relaxed. The throat is very large, so you literally can't get a tiny sound out of the XPiece

Personally, I never had braces... but, Yes. Most issues with braces are caused by lip tension and conventional mouthpieces. The XPiece forces you to relax and use air, rather than chops. You literally can't play it if you tense your lips. The XPiece is a lifesaver bro.

What mouthpiece should I be practicing on vs performing on? When is it appropriate to switch mouthpieces during a gig?

Sorry i have so many questions, thanks dude!

[@BlaiseBowman]

Primarily, the XPiece is a tool, a very good one. Though, I've had a lot of success using it as a primary piece as well. Learning to sound good on a small (note, not shallow) mouthpiece is one of the best things you can do in your trumpet career. I love my XPiece and play it daily

Is this fine for a 12 year old with 2 years of experience

[@MovableFormula]

I know this is very late, but I have three questions. Is this a good lead trumpet mouthpiece? Is there a gold plated one? Also how do I get one?

[@cinnamoncronch915]

MovableFormula What he replied to someone was to dm Lynn Nicholson what’s the link and that he’ll send it to you. I’d link you but I don’t have facebook

[@earltpt]

Never mess around with mouthpieces.....................get 27 good ones and stick on them!

[@genedooley6925]

This is so...weird. Talk, talk, talk...sell, sell, sell. And I play Lynn's horn and mouthpieces.

[@firepvp4968]

why do i have the same trumpet with but im 12?

[@barryhunt8527]

Does it fit a Cornet or is there one for a Cornet?

[@dio5371]

I am the best trumpet player in my band class. I can also the highest note in class, the d above high c, cant wait to buy this

[@dandylion2837]

Hey DIO did the Xpiece improve your range?

[@NeoManoscaMusic]

I'm using a Schilke 6a4a is that a small mpc?

[@jeffalfrd]

Wow yeah that is a very small schilke,. Refer to the mouthpiece guide for schilke it will really help. The most important thing is what you like and can play with everyone one is different, your teacher or tutor will know what is best for you. Switching mouth pieces while learning is not a good idea, but....... If your mouthpiece isn't working for you ask your teacher. They will know depending on lip dimensions and embouchure developing which is best for you in particular.

Can i use a 1/2 c mouthpiece?

[@ianadair7428]

i can already play a high c with a standard bach 3c. If i get this your telling me i can play up to a double C, or even higher?

[@BlaiseBowman]

If you use it properly yes.

[@imothy]

What if i cut the rim off of an old 7c? Would this work similar to the reversible rim?

[@BlaiseBowman]

It would work similar, but only ~70% effective. The 7C has a sharp rim/bite which encourages tension. The Reversible Rim is designed specifically for chop relaxation and is much better of a teacher at playing high.

[@sfcucumber1432]

So we now know this is the best mouth piece ever, but less specifically what is the best mouthpiece size for playing high? Like a 3c?

[@BlaiseBowman]

The XPiece! It's primarily a lead mpc, but you can use it for anything

[@treytemples2311]

For Blaise bowman and or Lynn Nicholson: I am not interested in trying out the mr protocol at this time, however, I still get pressure headaches and range problems. Will this mouthpiece do the trick?

[@TrombaSolo]

Aspirin

[@josephmazzaro8308]

[@adammajor1133]
