1/2
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The silver Steven Mead Ultra Series SM4X is a baritone horn mouthpiece designed around a classic baritone horn sound with added support and response, particularly in the upper register. Its more substantial outer profile is intended to increase projection. The cup combines funnel and bowl characteristics, while a slightly sharper inner rim edge is used to support response and flexibility. It is a purposeful Ultra Series option for players focusing on those playing traits.
