- In this week's mouthpiece comparison we put the trusty Bach 4G up against the Denis Wick 4ABL by playing a little Barat Andante et Allegro. Which one do you prefer? Comment below!

Bach better suits You, sound is more clear.
Thanks for the video. The best way to hear and compare two mpcs would be with short phrases, playing the same. In other words, after 3 bars you should have shown the same phrase with the DW .. easy and faster for us to hear back and forth on the low, medium, and high registers. Though to me you sounded better on Bach.
Great video! Very informative! I use a Dennis Wicke 9BS!
Olá! tou pensando em adquirir esse bocal, mais não testei ainda. O que você pode me falar dele?
Hi!! beetwen heritage, heavytop and clasicc deniswic, wich do you recomend to me, i play first trombone and i make recordings where a i have to play trombones (3 voices).
What do you play for a trombone and what genre/style do you play?
Schmitt Music Trombone Shop i play salsa, jazz and some times classic... Thank you for your help.!!!
I would recommend either the Heavytop or Classic; I find the Heritage line to have good sound and stability but flexibility and response in technical situations tends to lack. For me I like the core and slotting in the Heavytops but others find the heavier blank harder to get a clean and fast response. Hope this helps!
Can you do a denis wick heritage comparison?
I would love to! The big trick is getting our hands on some of the Heritage models; we haven't been stocking many lately as they haven't gotten a lot of traction in our area. Let me work with Denis Wick and we'll see what we come up with :)
Schmitt Music Trombone Shop thank you. There isn’t a lot of videos for denis wick mouthpieces and there should honestly be more
Can you recommend a decent V cup mouthpiece for my Yamaha YSL630 trombone?
@David Gray thanks for the information I'll be sure to look into that! I've recently purchased a Denis Wick 9BS and that's very good
Bach 3G is a wonderful Mouthpiece
DW sounded richer ...both sound great tho
La boquilla Denis wick 4bs es para trombón de tudel chico o tudel ancho ... En otras palabras para trombón de estudiante campana pequeña o trombón de campana ancha transpositor
Thanks for the very effective comparison. To me both mouthpieces are too dark for tenor trombone, but you are getting good sound.
Thank you for the feedback and for watching!
Would you recomend the Dennis Wick Heritage or Classic (1AL or 0AL) for a Bass trombone?
I lean towards the Classic vs. the Heritage, mostly because of the rim shape on the Heritage, which is quite flat. For some people a flat rim gives a lot of stability to their sound; I do find this to be true but at the same time I find flexibility suffers greatly. The Classic still has a flatter rim then most and I think is a bit more versatile...
I am considering buying a Rath 900. What mouthpiece would be recommended?
@@duncanjames9477 what does your teacher suggest?
Hi, what do you think about the Denis Wick's booster for classic mouthpieces? Did you ever tried it? Does it really changes the sound that it sounds a little bit deeper and "more dark"? I know it will never be the same with heritage or heavytop but is it even worth to pay attention?
I haven’t played specifically on the Denis Wick boosters but I have experience with similar weight enhancers. Any time mass is added to a mouthpiece I find it does add weight and projection to the sound and darken the timbre; on the flip side more mass can make response and articulation slower. The other problem I have encountered is that some mouthpiece designs don’t respond well to the added weight and you aren’t guaranteed to get the benefits you were hoping for. I think they are absolutely worth a try if you were interested but don’t expect miracles!
At 66 my 4G makes me work A LOT. I often fall back to my trusty Schilke 51D. Is the Wick 4ABL as demanding as the 4G? (I'm sure you're thinking 4G? demanding? Call me when you're 66 - but don't wait for me to answer - I will undoubtedly have shoved off).
is the shilke good for high register?
It depends on a number of factors but the Schilke 51D wouldn’t be my first choice for a mouthpiece to support the upper register. The 51D has a deeper cup, which can provide depth and warmth to the sound but can also make upper range response more difficult; combined with a more open throat and backbite, which Schilke is known for, this makes the 51D a popular euphonium choice but not my biggest recommendation on trombone...
Just so happens I'm playing this solo....
A true classic!
Can the 4ABL haritage be used on bass trombone.
It certainly can! With that said often I find that the mouthpiece needs to match not only the player but the instrument; given the air column size and speed needed for the general bass trombone design many players might find a mouthpiece like the 4ABL to be a bit on the small side but depending on ones approach it could well be a fit...
I thought this video was so helpful because I play on a getzen 3047afr and I play on a 5G Bach And was looking into a Dennis wick
Glad it was of help; thank you for watching!
What do the 3G, 4G, and so on mean? Is that just apart of the name of the mouthpiece?
Steven123lucky I believe the smaller the number the larger the mouthpiece. 3Gs are larger than 4Gs for example
I play straight tenor should I get a 4BS or a 12CS
I just ordered a 12cs and i cant find any videos about it but all i know is if you want a little higher notes and more jazzy sound do 12cs
Could you do a review of just the Yamaha YSL882GO? I just bought one for my intermediate/prof. Trombone
Yes, as soon as I get another one in the shop! (We have difficulty keeping them in stock due to their popularity.). Congrats on your new trombone!
Thanks so much!!
