Roger Ingram Signature Mouthpieces

New Endorsing Artist!

We are very excited to introduce our new line of Roger Ingram Signature Wedge mouthpieces. Dr Dave worked with Roger for months to develop a line of Wedge mouthpieces based on his specific requirements. There are four models available in one piece and two piece silver plated brass, and Hybrid materials. One piece models will be made with our small Wedge backbore. The tops will be compatible with Wedge backbores or any of the excellent 3/8-40 thread backbores offered by our friends at Warburton, Pickett Brass, or Austin Custom Brass.

What Roger Ingram has to say about his Wedge mouthpieces:

"With Dr. Harrison's unique rim and cup design, I am getting a richer sound, greater comfort and endurance, and better slotting in all registers. Dave knows what he's doing! It's been an absolute pleasure to work with Dave since I first reached out to him earlier this year."
