Denis Wick DW4880E-SM4XR Steven Mead Ultra Euphonium Mouthpiece - Gold Plated

Large cup diameter and barrel backbore give a big, open sound.

A large shank euphonium mouthpiece with a new rounder rim, giving increased comfort to the player, with a newly-designed inner shape and slightly reduced cup depth. The new Denis Wick Ultra 4XR euphonium mouthpiece designed by Steven Mead, is a brilliant new addition to the highly popular Denis Wick Ultra range of mouthpieces.

All Wick euphonium mouthpieces are based on the proven principles of the trombone mouthpieces and offer subtle, yet significant, refinements to the throat and backbore to complement the euphonium's conical bore. Steven Mead Ultra models feature a different, heavier outer shape, a slightly more rounded cup and a slightly sharper inner rim edge. The sound is powerful, with a beautiful, singing high register.

The Steven Mead Ultra X series is for players looking for a sound that has more brilliance than the standard Ultra Series or classic Steven Mead Series. The cup has been rounded to a more defined bowl shape which adds more brilliance to the tone and provides better upper register response. The rim has been altered to have a slightly sharper inner edge which increases articulation response and accuracy.
