The Korena take

Denis Wick’s gold Heritage Series 10CS is a small-shank trombone mouthpiece aimed at clean, even tone through every register. Its 25 mm cup, 6.46 mm rim and medium backbore define the 10CS layout, while the Heritage design combines added mass near the throat and backbore with thinner upper walls. That design is intended to retain sensitivity across dynamics, support upper-register articulation and bring clearer overtones to the response.
