Product Overview
Similar to Wedge 65S, but with a slightly more V shaped cup - Excellent choice for a lead mouthpiece to complement a Bach 1-1/2C, Bach 3C, or similar “legit” mouthpiece. Also a great choice for piccolo trumpet, for which it was originally designed.
The G3 series refines the Wedge design to give brass players even more control over their setup.
Asymmetrical Dual Orientation: The top and bottom rims feature slightly different shapes, giving you two distinct rim profiles in a single mouthpiece.
Next-Gen G3 Geometry: Designed with a slightly narrower rim and a more pronounced vertical oval than the G2 models for increased efficiency and response.
Customizable Playing Feel: Highly adaptable to your unique embouchure. While playable in either direction, most players prefer positioning the wider rim at the top and the orientation dot facing down.
Highlights:
- SV cup slightly more V shaped than 65S.
- Excellent projection, slightly less support in upper register than the ES cup
- Less prone to bottoming out than the ES cup
- Excellent for lead when a solid mid to low register is also desired
- Works well for piccolo trumpet when a brighter sound with more projection is desired
- Surprisingly good low register for an extra shallow lead mouthpiece
Specifications:
- Inner Diameter: .650 inches measured .04 inches into the cup
- Outer Diameter: 1.104 inches
- Cup Depth: SV (Shallow V) cup (similar to a Schilke or Yamaha 14A4A, Warburton SV, Reeves S, Bach 3D, or GR S cup)
- Excellent mouthpiece for commercial lead and also for pit and pops
- The Wedge rim produces a much better lower register than comparable mouthpieces of this cup depth - low range sounds more like a Bach 3C then it does like a lead mouthpiece
- Also a mouthpiece for Piccolo trumpet if one prefers a shallow cup
- Backbore: Comes on a S (Small) backbore
