Denis WickDW4880B-SMU Steven Mead Ultra Series Baritone Horn Mouthpiece in Gold SM4X
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The gold SM4X is a Steven Mead Ultra Series mouthpiece for baritone horn, developed in cooperation with Steven Mead. Its design retains a classic baritone-horn sound while targeting greater support and response, with particular focus on the upper register. Added mass in the outer profile is intended to increase projection. The evolved cup brings together funnel- and bowl-style elements, and its slightly sharper inner rim edge is designed to promote response and flexibility.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Baritone horn playing that needs more support and response, especially in upper-register work.
- Players seeking the Ultra Series projection-focused outer mass and flexible cup-and-rim design.
