Rich, Dark Tones Await You
Denis Wick Heritage Series Trombone Mouthpieces, like the 00AL, are the perfect way to break into a totally new sonic realm. This mouthpiece includes a gold-plated rim for a smoother "slippery" feel. Though it has the same internal dimensions as its Classic Series equivalent, the Heritage Series difference results from the mouthpiece’s shape and weight distribution. It has less mass around the rim with more mass around the bottom of the cup. By redistributing the weight, Denis Wick imbues the Heritage Series 00AL with a focused yet airy sound that’s entirely unique. Load it into your horn, and you’ll be rewarded with a rich, dark tone and an easy blowing feel. But don’t just take our word for it, players around the world, including a loyal group at Sweetwater, rely on Denis Wick mouthpieces for practice and performance. If you’re ready for a game-changing playing experience, we recommend that you take the plunge and audition a Denis Wick mouthpiece today.
Denis Wick Products: the crossroads of excellence and ingenuity
Like many premium brands, Denis Wick Products’ beginnings were modest. In 1968, company founder Denis Wick began making mouthpieces and mutes to satisfy his own needs as principal trombonist of the London Symphony Orchestra. Soon, other players took notice and commissioned custom mouthpieces for themselves — and Wick never looked back. Since the ’70s, Denis Wick Products has grown into an internationally recognized brand synonymous with world-class mouthpiece and mute designs. Based in southern England, the company’s highly skilled artisans still craft their products by hand. Indeed, each mouthpiece and mute produced are shining examples of Denis Wick’s relentless pursuit of the perfect sound. Audition one in the Sweetwater Music Store and experience the Denis Wick Products difference.
