Brandon Ridenour - Endorsing Wedge Artist

Endorsing Artist

"Wedge mouthpieces provide excellent focus for both sound and pitch. This tonal focus makes finding those note "slots" much easier and aiming for those slots becomes much more reliable. Since playing on a Wedge, I have already noticed an improvement in my overall intonation when playing with others. In addition to these characteristics, the Wedge is the most comfortable feeling mouthpiece I have ever played. The contour of the rim feels like it's actually forming to your lips! If all of these assets are something you're searching for, then try out a Wedge!"

Testimonials

"Dave Harrison has come up with a mouthpiece that improves articulation, accuracy and really defines the upper register. The trumpet mouthpiece allows me to cover the entire range of the horn with a full rich sound. The flugel model really enhances the dark, deep tone of my flugelhorn.

I can't say enough about the Wedge. Thanks Dave for your passion and expertise in building such a great line of mouthpieces."
