Yamaha Standard Trumpet Mouthpiece

I purchased the Yamaha 5A4 mouthpiece, weeks ago. And to tell you the truth this mouthpiece is a great lead piece! The only issue is the rim is pretty narrow, and it kind of hurts my lips. But other than that itÆs a phenomenal mouthpiece! I would recommend to the player that always plays lead!

I learned to play on a Blessing 7c and eventually worked up to a Schilke 16c4. I then borrowed the 11B4 from my friend and loved it. I had forgotten my normal one, so I borrowed this before our show. I had always had trouble just finished second trumpet music with it in our show, but after switching I not only mixed in some first trumpet music, but I have plenty of chops left to play later. Over all, those who like a slightly shallower cup and a thicker rim will greatly enjoy this mouthpiece. My range has increase and I can play high F above the scale and can sometimes squeak out a G. Great mouthpiece and I hope to play on in for a while.
