Denis Wick Classic Series Cornet Mouthpiece - 4B (Gold Plated)
We have a luxurious little upgrade on the bench today: the Denis Wick Classic Series 4B Cornet Mouthpiece finished in gold plate. Denis Wick mouthpieces are the gold standard (pun intended) for cornet players worldwide, celebrated for their beautifully proportioned cup depths, comfortable rim profiles, and distinctive V-type backbores designed to produce that signature dark, velvety British brass band core.
The 4B features a medium-deep cup and a comfortable, supportive rim width (approx. 17.00mm outer diameter). It offers exceptional versatility—giving players the depth and richness needed for lush ensemble playing while retaining the upper-register sparkle and security required for demanding solo literature. Upgrading to gold plating adds a slightly warmer feel against the lips and a subtle, rich roundness to the overtone spectrum.
