Denis Wick - 4884-5BFL Classic bugle plaquée or 5BFL

The Denis Wick 4884-5BFL Classic mouthpiece enhances the enveloping and expressive character of your instrument. The flugelhorn is often chosen for its lyrical lines in brass band, harmony or jazz, and this mouthpiece fully supports this sonic identity.

With a bowl diameter of 16 mm, this model offers a slightly more compact feel, ideal for maintaining excellent control of the centre of the sound. The result is a precise sound, particularly pleasing in delicate passages or delicate solos.

The 5.3 mm thick rim provides stable, comfortable support. This width means you can play for long periods without excessive fatigue, while maintaining a balanced feel on the lips. You'll be able to keep your nuances and phrasing flexible.

The 4.5 mm grain ensures controlled airflow. The result is clean attacks, crisp articulation and good stability in all registers. The sound remains homogenous, even when you're exploring wider dynamics.

The wide open tail contributes to the fullness of the timbre. You get a sound that breathes, capable of blossoming in ensembles while retaining a lovely smoothness.

The gold plating improves the feeling of contact with the lips. It gives an impression of warmth and suppleness, while reinforcing the durability of the mouthpiece.
