Denis Wick: A Leading Reference in Brass Accessories
Founded by Denis Wick, musician of the London Symphony Orchestra, the brand was born from a very concrete need: to have accessories capable of helping the instrument to "carry" and resonate better in large halls. In half a century, Denis Wick has established itself as a global reference, supported by demanding British craftsmanship and meticulous manufacturing, designed to allow every brass player to fully express their musicality.
For Which Musician and Playing Contexts?
The Ultra X is aimed at players seeking additional support and increased power in the upper register, whether in orchestra, brass band, marching band, studio, or on stage. This type of mouthpiece is particularly suitable for intermediate to advanced musicians who want a more "controlled" feel and enhanced projection while maintaining precise attack control.
Sound and Design
With a cup diameter of 26.00 mm, the mouthpiece offers solid support and stable sound production. The 6.33 mm rim enhances comfort and consistency, useful in demanding passages and long sessions. The 7.20 mm cup diameter contributes to a direct response and good sound control, while the wide V-shaped backbore promotes projection and ease in the upper register. The gold-plated finish provides a soft touch on contact and a high-quality feel.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To protect your mouthpiece daily, a mouthpiece case and a soft cloth (for wiping after playing) are simple and safe choices. In practice, as this product relates to hygiene, keep it protected from shocks and handle it carefully to preserve the finish.
