BachTrumpet Mouthpiece (3513F)

First and foremost I'm declaring this the best mouthpiece I've ever played. Out of the 5 mouthpieces I have this is by far the best. It increased my range from just being able to hit a D above the staff to a double F + no problem. However, this is not a beginner's mouthpiece, it has taken 4 weeks of good solid practice to be able to play well on this because it is so shallow. It was a challenge at first to hit middle range notes but after a good two months on this I can easily play any octave no problem. The 4 weeks it took me to adapt was personal circumstance, I had oral surgery and could not play for a good 3 weeks, so my lips weren't synced to a certain mouthpiece so I was able to melt into this one quicker than if I had just switched spur of the moment. If your looking to play higher in band and show off and become one of the top players DO NOT BUY THIS MOUTHPIECE WITH THE EXPECTATIONS OF BEING ABLE TO PLAY LIKE THAT RIGHT AWAY, wait till off season or the summer to transition into this, or just practice for 10-15 min a day with it and switch over when you feel confident with it. Oh that 10-15 min bit, thats how long your chops will last when you first start playing this if not shorter. Overall, this is a INCREDIBLE mouthpiece and a good investment. And a little bit more advice, get it from (wwbw, thats abbreviated) I've gotten everything there and until this purchase over amazon I drove an hour and a half just to go to their store, they have great sales and I got my trumpet there for like $500 off, and they are great about returns so if your buying anything musical but it from them, thats just personal preference, (if you cant find wwbw on amazon, google wwbw and you'll find there website, I dont want to advertise their whole name or I'll be accused of advertising for them)So all in all, a great mouthpiece for playing really high, for a good price from a good store.

Great trumpet mouthpiece

Perfect quality

Beautiful smoky sound that is wonderful with trumpets from the 40's and 50's

Good construction. I wouldn’t recommend this mouthpiece to anyone, for the cup is really deep and it makes it merely impractical. That makes it difficult to play high notes (above high G or A).

Lleno todas mis expectativas que esperaba de este producto

Still the best.

So I actually ordered this by mistake, I meant to order a 3C. However luck was on my side because this 7D is actually working really well. My 10 year old son is a brand new player, with a small mouth and thin lips. He was having a little trouble with the Bach 7C that came with his trumpet... Huge difference with the 7D. I don't know anything about mouthpieces and these two look exactly the same to me, but my son sounds so much better when he uses this mouthpiece.
