Denis Wick's new 'Ultra' mouthpices have been creating something of a stir.

Even after producing the most iconic mouthpieces in banding history over the last 40 years or more, the new 'Ultra' range has surpassed the highest expectations.

A spokesperson for Denis Wick said: "Steven Mead has done a fantastic job on the development of the new designs. He demands very high standards, but the results are fantastic."

Reactions:

Reactions to the new Ultra mouthpieces include:

"If you liked the former Steve Mead mouthpieces you will LOVE the newly designed Denis Wick SM Ultra series!"

New design

With a newly designed rim and shape to the mouthpiece the performer will immediately notice an increased sense of endurance, improved articulation and intonation, and a great deal of enhanced power in both the high and low registers.
