Welcome to the Shop Page.
The Wedge mouthpiece is available with different options, so here are some tips to help with your selections.
You have two main choices for materials; silver plated brass and the new Hybrid.
Hybrid mouthpieces are made from two parts. The rim and cup insert are 3D printed using a medical grade resin developed for the dental industry to make permanent crowns. Think of it as synthetic ivory. The insert is permanently bonded to an un-plated brass base.
Hybrids produce a warmer, darker sound than comparable brass mouthpieces. Most players find them more comfortable than brass, and like how the rim always feels warm. Hybrid mouthpieces are lighter than brass, so the feedback from them is slightly different. Notes don't feel quite as locked in or slotted compared to a brass Wedge. However, the slotting of a Wedge Hybrid is still better than a comparable conventional brass mouthpiece.
Many players prefer to play the Hybrid with the optional, easily removable sound booster, which brings the weight of the Hybrid closer to brass and makes the feedback very close to a brass Wedge.
If you like a warm, rich sound and an extra comfortable rim you will love the Hybrid. If you like more clarity, brilliance and projection in your sound stick with silver plated brass.
For the last two years Hybrids have out sold brass mouthpieces two to one.
