Yes bro 😍🎺
Thanks bro!! 🎺🎺
Very professional video! DW is lucky to have you as an artist!
Thanks!! 🙏🙏
Thanks for the Great Video I needed that , I just bought the 5X Heritage waiting for it to arrive.
Thanks!! I hope you enjoy it, let me know how it works out for you. 🎺🎺
I recently bought a 4X heritage. I always liked the 4X but it felt a little too locked in for jazz playing. The heritage is more nimble and allows a bit more pitch flexibility. Demo video on my UA-cam channel. Its a great mouthpiece.
Nice! I'm still using that 4X heritage ... a terrific mouthpiece.
Great vid! Been a 4x user for years and years and just got the heritage model of it. Saw you on tiktok and you randomly come up on YT. BIG FAN!
Thanks, Austin!! Appreciate that, really digging your stuff on tiktok!
I cant wait for this! I have a heritage mouthpiece for my cornet, and I love it.
Nice! I just heard they will be shipping soonish...stay tuned!
@@JoshRzepkaMusic I cant Wait! I actually have a video idea. A guide to buying a new trumpet for beginner, intermidiate and pro.
@@williamjakobsen9822 great idea! I wish I could get into a nice music store and show/playtest some horns for a video like that. I'll think about that - thanks!!
I just got an email that said the trumpet heritage mp are about 3 weeks out ... so fingers crossed!
Thank you for the video! Glad to hear they are finally making these. Out of curiousity, what are your thoughts on some of the other mouthpiece lines like the american Classic series?
I haven’t played those in a while, but I’m a big fan of all the DW mouthpieces. Super consistent and always great core and articulation. My every day is the classic MM4C, I felt it suited my playing a bit better than the American Classic.
Classic line has more core in the Sound, I like that.
Despite of that the top notes pop out nicely with the heritage line. So for me it is the classic line, for a lead Player the heritage might be right.
I use them both - depending on the gig.
"these are going to disappear somewhere." LOL !!! We know where they are going, Josh! 😆Man, there were examples where I couldn't tell a difference. But, other examples I could hear that the Heritage shines in the upper register. I also like the body of the classic. I would honestly use both of them, especially since they'll feel the same on my face. Nice videos! I enjoy everything about them. . . . content, audio, video, edits. Keep 'em coming! Thank you!
Yeah, it was very close on the recording. I need a ribbon mic and better pre-amp 😂😂. But, playing them it's immediately apparent. I'm definitely going to be using them all moving forward. The body of the sound on the classic is thick and full ... so nice. But it's great to have more options.
It was good to get the 4X on my face a little bit ... not on the road I haven't really played it much in a few months. 😮
Thanks for watching and commenting! 🙏🙏
My Denis Wick brother 😂 I’m excited to get this piece soon. I got the Heritage S recently for my pic and it’s really nice. Smooth and helps a bit with the damn intonation. Nice review. Definitely could tell differences on most, but not all. Maybe with headphones!
You'll dig them! Thanks for checking out the vid. 🙏 #teamdeniswick #dwpham
I just got two Flugel mouthpieces this week, so good! But it really let me know how bad my flugel is. 😂😂
@@JoshRzepkaMusic LOL the struggle is real
Oh, it's SO bad. 😂😂😂
Love the mouthpieces (I play a Denis Wick American 1.5c,)
The best!!
Hey Josh, I play a Wick 4f on fluglehorn. Are they working on a Heritage flugel mouthpiece also? Greg
Hey Greg, it doesn't seem like the have that in the works at the moment, but they are always working on new things so maybe one day they'll make one?
Think the difference more apparent to the player… feel and auditory feedback. But their was a small difference and bit of added edge to your sound in the heritage pieces.
Yeah, depending on the speaker/headphones you listed on it may not be too apparent, but from my end the difference it very noticeable. I've got another video in the works ... comparing all 5 weights of Denis Wick mouthpieces - likely with section multi-track ... that will be far more noticeable.
@@JoshRzepkaMusic I will look forward to it! Ordered my first Denis Wick and should be arriving today… a 2FLD think it is a German Taper piece for my Rotary Fluegelhorn!
@@ewetho nice! Enjoy! Let me know how you like the new MP.
What size is the hertage is the 3c good ???
They have the heritage in many different sizes - I play a MM4C. 3C is a great choice for many.
The 4X isn't new. Kids been using them in marching band from time. They're like a cross between the Shew Lead and a Bach 3/4c.
I wish Wick would make a mpc with the 4X rim and a deeper cup. That would be ideal for me, personally.
Neither of those sizes are new, but the heritage line on trumpet is ... Same cups etc ... But different outside.
so is it like a one size fits all?
one size fits all? are you able to be a bit more specific with the question?
@@JoshRzepkaMusic my bad im just asking that cause i got big lips and I play on the side of my mouth
ahh, got it. I don't think the rim on any of these are any wider or narrower, just less mass and thinner.
@@JoshRzepkaMusic u know any mouthpieces u would suggest that gots a good rim size and small cup
Sounds same
