1/2
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The silver Ultra Series SM3X is a Denis Wick euphonium mouthpiece shaped around a classic euphonium sound, with design attention on support and response in the upper register. Its more substantial outer form is intended to add projection. Inside, the cup draws on both funnel and bowl shapes, while a slightly sharper inner rim edge is used to promote response and flexibility. It was developed in cooperation with euphonium virtuoso Steven Mead.
