The texture of the mouthpiece and curvatures reduce fatigue. Moreover I like the warmer sound produced by my Yamaha FH731. -David H.

Title: Don't like the feel.
Dave makes excellent products, I currently own a 65MV. always a joy to talk to. Unfortunately after a week of practice. the Hybrid top didn't work for me on my flugel. Perhaps it will be awesome for someone else. I am sticking with conventional brass silver plated mouthpieces. -David D.

67FLC Flugelhorn Hybrid Top
5 star review
Title: A Real Winner
This is my second wedge mouthpiece, the first being a standard trumpet 67 MDV hybrid, and I love both of them. My endurance has increased significantly and I have gained 2+ notes of range. I'll never be a high note artist, but to be able to play Ds and Es above middle C changes the game for me. I find that the 67FLC I recently purchased creates a slightly brighter tone, but the real benefit is in how much easier it is to play. I don't feel like I'm straining at all to create a clear tone yet retain the classic flugelhorn voice. Overall, I'm extremely happy with both purchases. -Timothy D.

Title: Still works great with my Yamaha flugelhorn
I have been using this mouthpiece for several years now. Flugelhorn got tangled in a mic chord in early August and tipped over breaking the acrylic mouthpiece. Bummer! Ordered new one and played very nicely at gig today. I like the feeling of the acrylic. It makes for a dark/mellow tone. Lends to clean note attacks. Pretty nice response in upper range - like G to C - where I actually seldom go on flugelhorn. I like it. -James R.V.

67FLC Flugelhorn Brass Top
5 star review
Title: Excellent design!
I recently purchased a 67FLC Flugelhorn mouthpiece because I am so pleased with my 67MV trumpet mouthpiece that I wanted to attain similar benefits on my Flugelhorn. As with the trumpet, the Flugelhorn sound is improved, becoming cleaner while maintaining the resonant dark sound that I strive to achieve on the Flugel. For me, the Wedge design allows for greater range, flexibility, slotting, secure pitch adjustment and improved timbre. Endurance in all registers is greatly improved. I highly recommend Harrison mouthpieces as upgrades from the more conventional designs. Previously I used Yamaha mouthpieces, and before them, Bach mouthpieces. My instruments are Yamaha Xeno trumpet and Yamaha Pro Flugel. As our understanding of sound production & physiology evolve, so must the design of the interface between our instruments and our bodies. I believe Dr Dave and the Harrison team are achieving great improvements for brass instrument mouthpiece design. Explore Dr. Dave's technical info on website for detailed explanations regarding his approach. -James M.

Title: 65FLC Flugelhorn Hybrid Top
This mouthpiece replaces a Townson FLX top on my Adams F2 flugelhorn. In short, I like it a lot. The change to a .65 diameter to match my 65 LV trumpet piece has greatly improved my ability to articulate and maintain a full tone in rapid passages. The tone is big, breathy and beautiful, and the pitches are well-centered. The hybrid top is easy on the lips and maintains a neutral temperature. I play with a relaxed embouchure, and have no difficulty with unwanted mouthpiece movement. It is a substantial improvement. Thanks for your good advice. -Jim B.

Title: Dr. Dave and Moe Norman
What do these two Canadians have in common? Dr. Dave went outside the box and used his medical, and mechanical knowledge to create the best mouthpiece I've ever played. The Wedge mouthpiece meets All the improvements listed on the site. I was a music ed. major in college. While practicing for my cousin's wedding I played too high for too long and strained my lip. That was about 40 years ago. Since then my chops wear out quickly with reduced range and a good deal of swelling. The new hybrid feels great. I have very little swelling. My sound in low and mid ranges is very good. I'm taking my time on extending range. I'm 73 and have renewed hope of improving. Oh yeh. Moe Norman was probably the best golf ball striker in history. Seven years ago I developed spinal stenosis. I switch from right to left handed golfing. Using Moe's style no spinal pain and I broke 90 numerous times last year. Thanks Dr. Dave. Thanks Moe. -Mike S.

Title: Great experience!
This mouthpiece is no miracle. It's the amazing results of anatomical knowledge, engineering and machining expertise and a love for music. My Yamaha 17F4 sounded too bright, had too much back pressure and wore me out rather quickly. My new 67FLC gives me that warm, round, smokey sound I'm looking for. Add to that less back pressure, more flexibility, better endurance and no swollen chops... OK, maybe it is a miracle. -MJS

As I said, this 66FLC was ordered for my friend who I play trumpet with for more than 50 years !... When I suggest him to try my 66FLC, I saw in is face the expression of him to discover something very unique. More confort, better controle, less fatigue and more fun to play flugelhorn passes. If you've never experience a 66FLC, you should! -Louis V

Having had a video call consultation with Dr Dave and following his great advice, I decided on a 66FLC composite top with a British short cornet shank. I have now been using this setup for about a month and noticed almost instantly an improvement in stamina. Notes are very centred across the range and the whole thing feels very comfortable. Great product, thank you! -Jason G

Title: Nice mouthpiece
This is my first wedge. I am a beginner in brass so it is a little hard to say how this works compared to a normal mouthpiece but I am pretty sure it is better. Notes are easier for me. I go back and forth and the wedge really is more comfortable. I may be the first beginner to buy one of these, but a good start is important. I do have an overbite so I went with the 5%. -Nancy O

Title: Excellent mouthpiece!
I play jazz in small ensemble and big band settings and occasionally play studio dates (in jazz, pop and rocks settings). This is by far the best fluegelhorn mouthpiece I've ever had. The shape of the rim is very comfortable which makes switching from trumpet to fluegelhorn and back super easy. Although it is the smallest fluegelhorn mouthpiece cup design Wedge has, it still gives me that nice, warm fluegelhorn sound I love to hear in all registers. The smaller cup also helps with endurance, making it much easier to play longer solos. Great job once again, Wedge! -Martti V

Title: My second Wedge!
I've used a Wedge for more than a year now for trumpet. I thought I'd give the flugle horn one a try. I'm very happy with it. When I transition from one horn to the other I feel like the mouthpiece is the same. What works for me is that with my rather large lips I feel like I have good contact with the Wedge without adding pressure. -Dexter T

Title: 65FLC delivers as promised
The 65FLC mouthpiece gives me the same feel and response as my 65ES trumpet mouthpiece. I wanted a darker tone on my flugelhorn so I chose the standard cup depth. That comes at the expense of range, but on my flugel range is not that important. I love my Wedge mouthpieces. My next one will be the 65S BRC for my soprano cornet. I cannot wait. -Rudolf J

Title: Love it!
I am a long time customer. I was looking for an MDV and MV cups. Conferred with Dave over several emails, and he said his experience was that you could play a bit smaller on the Wedge than his normal size. I had nothing to lose with his great guarantee, and trade program, so I dropped from a 665 to a 65 in all of my pieces. It took a couple of weeks, but I’m a happy camper! Of course, Daniel made this transition smooth as usual. Great folks to work with! Thanks for your help, Dave! A home run!!!! -Ed M

Title: Great companion mouthpiece to Chuck Findley 66
I have been playing the Chuck Findley 66 mouthpiece for a couple of years now and really like it. I had not changed my flugel mouthpiece, and it felt weird switching from the Wedge shape to the standard round profile of my Yamaha mouthpiece. Now, with this 66FLS, I can switch back and forth during a gig more comfortably, and it also feels like there is a bit more support for above the staff playing, which is welcome. -Dan T

OK, so I am an orchestral musician who plays the flugelhorn relatively little in my day to day work. I tried the 67FLC with the Yamaha back bore and WOW! It works beautifully. Nice, characteristic flugel sound. Easily accessed upper register with out sacrificing the lower range sound. Brought my Yamaha YTR631 in to a new level of control and intonation. I recommend with out hesitation this mouthpiece! -John W

Title: 65FLC Gives Stamina Along with Richness
The 65FLC somehow actually opened up my sound on my Benge flugelhorn while simultaneously casting a deeper, richer sonority, which might seem counterintuitive but nevertheless is the case. It increased not so much my upper range itself but strengthened and eased my ability to occasionally hit higher notes with better slotting and therefore confidence. -Peter S

On the trumpet it mellows my tone and allows me to add variety to the styles I play. It is a wonderful mouthpiece! - Edward B

I’m thinking of maybe next trying the plastic for trumpet. My chops continue to improve through careful practice and breathing and have experienced an increase in both range and endurance. -Richard P

I played lead trumpet for the Army, Air Force and the Air National Guard for over 30 years and thought I was pretty settled in on mouthpiece choice. I now have 3 Wedge mouthpieces. 66S (Chuck Findlay model), 66MS, and now 66 FLC - flugelhorn. These are incredible mouthpieces. 1st thing I noticed was the improved sound, then improved endurance and comfort. Great customer service and return policy. Well worth a try. I’m hooked! -Jeff S

Title: Magic one, you can't miss it
Customer from Taiwan When I bought it three months ago, like most people feeling," try another brand again" hope the new one feels better after sweet period. And yes, wedge mouthpiece isn't disappointed to me. the rim design is totally a revolution design. something changes to me as below: 1 Use the old mouthpiece, when the air is not good flow enough,it sounds not good enough,or we'll make more pressure, overblow trumpet. Wedge rim design won't let you overblow easily , even on your bad time, the rim design can adjust your lip back to your best way. 2 most of time we can't feel it until the sounds become badly . When you have a gig or a show, wedge mouthpiece could let you know it's time to stop,even support you to the end of a gig, and get the minimal miss of notes. TRY ONE! the company policy makes the mouthpieces valuable even several years later! -Patrick W

I recently purchased the FLC top in delrin and used it with the recommended 19 throat trumpet shank for a short trumpet solo in concert band.

It produced an extremely dark, full orchestral sound that carried very well in the large auditorium . . . tone was better than I’ve ever sounded. -Christopher B.

Title: Two piece flugelhorn mouthpiece works great!
Never having touched a flugelhorn before and certainly never having blown one, I asked Dave for a recommendation because the Shielke and Bach mouthpieces that came with new (used) flugelhorn just weren't working. Dave recommend the standard sized shank and the 66FLC top because the 66MDV trumpet mouthpiece works so well for me. I've never had a 2 piece mouthpiece before so I was a little leary of it, but now that I've got one, I love it! I see why Dave recommended the 2 piece; one can more easily and more cheaply switch between tops. Anyway, the 66FLC delivers the same big, deep and rich sound on the flugelhorn as the 66MDV does on the trumpet. I love the 66 size rim because it is wide and seems to float on my lips and not dig in causing fatigue. I use the mouthpiece horizontally because my face is so narrow. The 66FlC is deep so it takes a different approach than the trumpet, so this is going to take some getting used to. But the new Wedge mouthpiece does exactly what Dave represented. Thanks again Dave! -John T
