The Wedge Mouthpiece Pat. Pending

The Wedge is unlike any trumpet, trombone, or French horn mouthpiece you have ever tried before.

The Wedge mouthpiece has been described by those using it as the greatest innovation in brass wind technology in decades. You play it just like any other mouthpiece. The only difference is the results you will get.

Benefits of the Wedge Mouthpiece Reported by Players

  • Improved core to the sound in all registers
  • Greater comfort

  • Better comfort and better sound if you have braces

 

If you would like to learn more from players who have already switched to the Wedge you can read the testimonials from endorsing artists and others.

The Wedge could allow your playing to develop more positively than any equipment change you have ever made before. You do not need to learn to do anything differently when playing a Wedge. However, this is a very different mouthpiece, and results of switching can be dramatic.

We also have a very different way of doing business that makes it easy for you to learn if the biomechanics of the rim are a good fit for your particular setup.

The Wedge is not a gimmick. It is not a "cheater" mouthpiece. It is simply the next generation in mouthpiece rim design. We think 100 or so years was long enough without a significant change in design that could benefit most players in a dramatic way.

 

We have taken the risk out of trying a new mouthpiece

Pay for one Wedge and we will send you two mouthpieces to try for two weeks as part of our Size Trial Program. If you like one of them just mail the other back to us. If at the end of two weeks of evaluation the Wedge is not better than your current mouthpiece, and not worth every cent of your purchase price, we would like you to please mail it back to us for a refund and play what works best for you.

How can we make such an offer? We know that if you try the Wedge there is an 80% chance that you will keep it because it is better than any mouthpiece you have ever tried. That is how, after less than two years in business, we are currently selling 50 to 60 mouthpieces a month. It is that simple.

See the Guarantee - Return and Exchange page for more details about the money back guarantee.

Coming Soon - Simplified Size Selection

We will soon be introducing a line of Standard Brand sizes. Do you love your Bach 3C mouthpiece, but wonder what it would be like with a Wedge rim? Simply order a B3C and we will send a Wedge mouthpiece based on a Bach 3C cup and our new R4 rim. Ordering a Wedge could not be simpler.

Kevin Cobb of the American Brass Quintet used Lou Ranger's custom piccolo mouthpiece to perform the Brandenburg Concerto at the Aspen Music Festival at 8,000 feet above sea level.

Canadian Brass

The latest trombone player to convert to the Wedge is Gene Watts of the Canadian Brass. Gene picked up his Wedge during the recent Canadian Brass tour of British Columbia and has been playing it ever since. Gene joins Brandon Ridenour as the second member of the Canadian Brass to play a Wedge.

Endorsing Artist

"I have no hesitations about recommending the Wedge mouthpiece and, for what it's worth, heartily give the Wedge an enthusiastic 'two thumbs up!' I now have the sizzle that I wanted on the top end, and still have a nice, full lower register. This combination allows me to easily adjust between playing lead, and warm and beautiful solos on my cocktail jazz pieces. I didn't think that one mouthpiece could allow me to play with such varying tonal colors, but this Wedge combination certainly allows me to do it better than with any other mouthpiece that I have tried. I couldn't be happier!"
