Denis Wick - 4880-5AL Classic trombone plaquée or 5AL

With the Denis Wick Classic 5AL gold-plated trombone mouthpiece, you lay the foundations for a full, structured sound. Its 25.75 mm bowl diameter gives a beautifully rounded sound, without any loss of precision. You'll quickly feel that the instrument responds with stability, even in sustained passages.

The 6.64 mm wide rim provides comfortable contact. The support remains firm, which helps to maintain consistency of delivery and preserve your stamina during extended rehearsals. This feeling of security is invaluable when you're working with fine shades or exposed lines.

With 7.3 mm grain, the air circulates freely. The sound unfolds with fullness, particularly in the mid and low registers. Attacks remain clean, which is essential in symphony orchestras, brass bands and large jazz ensembles.

The barrel profile combined with a wide shank is perfectly suited to large-bore trombones. This configuration favours open projection and a full sound, capable of carrying over an ensemble without straining. You gain stability in sustained notes and confidence in powerful passages.

Denis Wick's Classic series is renowned for the quality of its design. The intonation remains reliable throughout the range, allowing you to concentrate on musicality rather than constant adjustment.

The gold plating provides a softer feel on the lips. It improves comfort and offers a warmer feel, particularly appreciated during long playing sessions. This finish also contributes to a slightly richer sound colour.
