Denis WickDW3180 Heritage Series Trombone Mouthpiece in Gold 5AL
1/8
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The gold Heritage Series 5AL is a large-shank trombone mouthpiece for wind ensemble and symphonic work. A deep cup, larger bore and barrel backbore shape this 25.73 mm-cup model, which is designed for improved projection and tone. The wider Heritage approach places additional mass around the throat and backbore while thinning the upper walls, balancing power with response at lower dynamics. It also supports clearer overtones and easier articulation in the upper register.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Wind ensemble parts that call for the 5AL’s deep cup and larger-bore design.
- Symphonic trombone work where improved projection and tone are required.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Small-shank trombones, because the 5AL is specified with a large shank.
