Denis Wick Classic Trombone Mouthpiece Review

Denis Wick Classic Trombone Mouthpiece Review
Going over my thoughts on the Class Trombone Mouthpiece series from Denis Wick music products.
In this video I go over:
- Denis Wick as a company and the person
- What the classic style is
- How to differ between the various labels of mouthpieces (Sizes, letters, back bore)
- My thoughts on the price
- My thoughts on the mouthpiece I have in this style (4AL)

What size mouthpiece are you currently using?

[@FreezingGamer1]

Denis Wick SM4X

[@JoseGutierrezLBS]

Bowman BB1

[@Pdnorell]

Alto 9BS, tenor 4AL, bass I play the Doug yeo piece

[@foundingchampion5194]

Schilke 51D

[@andrejesus649]

I play euphonium and I start playing with this mouthpiece the 4AL like 2 months ago and I am really liking. Its all gold

[@georgeschaut2178]

Hello...I'm a Canadian trombonist (Bach 42b tenor) who was personally recommended by Denis Wick himself (in an email) to try his 6BL large-bore mouthpiece. This mouthpiece has worked out fine for me (i.e., better than a Bach 5g that I had tried recently). Also, I was able to purchase a silver version of the 6BL mouthpiece at a great reduced price from a UK website... just thought I'd share that...George, Sudbury, Ont., Canada

[@georgeschaut2178]

Additionally, I later purchased a Denis Wick "booster" to add more weight to my 6BL classic above; essentially turning it into a heavytop. The jury is still out as I experiment with the booster on & off...thanks, George

[@kadenmanley9609]

i am currently using a Yamaha 51Dl but am probably going to the Schilke 51Dl or the 4Al because I am getting a new Bach 42BO strad trombone

[@amess9239]

I play BBb tuba and use the Denis Wick 2L heritage I find the heritage is better for larger and less intricate songs. It is fine playing twiddily pieces but tounging takes a lot more effort

[@tiannadavis1104]

can you make a video on how to practice?

[@sundershiwdin8045]

I am studying the deniss wick 4al but my favorite is the Bach 2g

[@Capricegirl_]

I’d say, buying a $200 bass trombone mouthpiece is totally worth it. I bought a golden 1g Vincent Bach megatone mouthpiece.

[@godzillapowerpufffan8142]

I have a silver plated Dennis wick trombone mouthpiece

[@blankvideowatcher1273]

What mouthpiece would you recommend for marching band?

[@AKCEuph]

Depends on what horn you are playing on. What instrument/bore size?

[@mstandish]

I use a Heritage 6AL but am thinking about picking up a 9BL for Jazz.

[@weluvharden]

Will a 9BL fit in the same trombone of a 6 1/2 AL?

[@mr.starfish4965]

Jourdan Reacts | Is your 6 1/2 AL small shank or large shank? If it’s large shank, than a 9BL will fit the receiver. If it’s a small shank trombone, the 9BS will fit.

[@ianbillings6454]

Schilke 50C4 🎼🎵🎶

[@terrybonilla5473]

That is for trombone? can you tell me what is the specs of your piece?

[@Juan_Bone09]

@@terrybonilla5473 the same as Bach 6.5 AL but with a flat rim

[@slow222]

this wasn't a review. you looked at prices and said you recommend them to your students but didn't say anything about the mouthpieces. you just reiterated the same info we can find on the product sheet.

[@AKCEuph]

Thanks for your feedback. What info did I miss that you would have liked to of had in the video?

[@slow222]

@@AKCEuph a play test/demo, comments on feel (resistance, flexibility, etc.), differences and comparisons to other mouthpiece brands, advantages and disadvantages...essentially looking for your thoughts and opinions from personal experience, not just a regurgitation of what's already on the data sheet.

[@AKCEuph]

@@slow222 All great feedback, I'll make sure to do better in future videos.

[@JamesJones-xz4cb]

Why isn't this a good mouthpiece for marching band

[@AKCEuph]

The cup and rim tend to be a little bigger than what you would typically want for a marching band situation. Very dark sound and that takes a lot of air to make. With marching you typically want a little more shallow and smaller rim to get the bite and the projection that you would want from the field. Dont get me wrong, people do it, I would just not suggest it.

[@cohpefps]

@@AKCEuph i am a junior who has marched 3 seasons now… i have found that the harm that a shallower mouthpiece causes to your sound is not worth it in the long run, especially during the switch to concert band.
