Trumpet mouthpieces come in a variety of shapes and sizes, and each one produces a slightly different sound. So, if you're looking for a particular sound, it's worth trying out a few different mouthpieces to see which one works best for you.
No, lip size does not matter for trumpet. Trumpet players can have any size lips and still play the trumpet well. It is the shape of the lips that is important for trumpet playing, not the size.
It usually takes a few days to get used to a new mouthpiece. However, if you have been playing the same mouthpiece for a while, it may take a week or two to get used to the new one.
3C is often seen as better than 5C because it is cheaper and more environmentally friendly. 3C products are also often seen as more reliable and of higher quality.

Excellent product from Pro Tec as usual. Never received anything from that business that wasn't excellent. The pouch is manufactured really well, and the zippers are robust. I adore the exterior pocket. The pockets are deep enough to accommodate mouthpieces with attached sound sleeves. The only thing I might change is adding a thumb clip so you can attach it to your trumpet case from Pro Tec like they do with their mute bag. However, it conceals itself quite well in the pocket.

This has been a godsend for my trumpet novice! It has significantly altered things. This mouthpiece had a crisper and sharper tone than his old one. I assume the band teacher told me the other size, which was a 7, was too small for my son. She advised this size, and she was correct! He is more at ease and confident while playing!

My son, who will start high school next year and has played the trumpet for three years, received these from me. He has put a lot of effort into developing his tone and range over the years, so he reasoned that switching mouthpieces might help. We didn't really know which one he would end up loving, and it would have been a waste to spend a little money buying them separately from other sources if it turned out he didn't like them after all. That's why we were thrilled to find this bundle of three distinct sizes at such a low price.They were properly packaged in a gift box with a gorgeous chain wrapped around it and arrived on schedule. Although it doesn't really affect how well the mouthpieces perform, it was a lovely touch. This box was a lovely pastel pink and lavender; but, if you're seeking to give them to a boy (or other person who does not especially appreciate pastel hues), you might want to choose a different one.These sound good, and they seem to have been well-machined. They are smooth and readily inserted into the trumpet.At the same time, I bought a set of 3C/5C/7C bullet-shaped (v-shaped) mouthpieces from the same vendor. My son has been testing with each of the six and has discovered that he enjoys them all, though for various reasons. His current practice involves switching mouthpieces according on the tune or the performance location (brighter sound for marching and pep band, richer sound for concerts, different size for easier playing in different registers, etc.). He enjoys the versatility of this approach.If he sticks with the trumpet, it might eventually be required to spend the money on name-brand mouthpieces, but for the time being there aren't any flaws that we can see, and the advantages are clearly worthwhile! This set, as well as the related bullet-shape ones, are highly recommended if you have an intermediate trumpet player in your life who is ready to experiment with what a different mouthpiece can do for them.

A fantastic deal, especially for experimenting with various mouthpiece sizes. You used your 7C when I was a kid, and you liked it. It took me a long time to even realize there were several sizes, much less use one. My son is really appreciative that I purchased him this so he wouldn't have to use my old mouthpiece.If you're buying this for someone else and you don't play trumpet yourself, be advised that the 3C size is probably not the best first mouthpiece. Although it encourages a great deep tone, it also necessitates a stronger embouchure, which could hinder a beginner's range expansion. The standard beginner mouthpiece is the 7C, which is good at first but definitely feels squeezed after switching to a 3C. You might also take into account the 5C for a beginner, either as a first mouthpiece or as a step up from the 7C. Although they don't appear to be significantly different, they certainly feel incredibly different.

For more than 46 years, I haven't truly played the trumpet. In April 2019, I picked up my 1956-made, Conn Director high school/college trumpet. Since then, I've practiced virtually every day. Using the Conn 4 mouthpiece that came with the trumpet, I've been having difficulties striking high G, F, and A.The 5C and 3C Cecilio Trumpet Mouthpieces I got yesterday arrived today. As you would have anticipated, it immediately put them to the test. I was constantly hitting high B and C in addition to high G, F, and A thanks to the 5C.Please understand that I am merely playing now for the sheer delight of doing so after so many years. It's a blast to play again in my 70s.This mouthpiece is worth the money to me, and at around $7, I would advise buying it.

Reviewing a mouthpiece is challenging because every brass player will have different preferences based on their embouchure, the size and shape of their lips, the style of playing they engage in, etc. The Bach 3C is a superb all-purpose mouthpiece for both jazz and classical performance, I will say. I can produce a great, open sound with the diameter while yet having the option to add zip when playing jazz or lead trumpet. Most lead players would choose a shallower mouthpiece, but I've discovered that because it allows for the eventual swelling of the lips, I can play high on this much more easily (I bottom out on shallower mouthpieces).Many beginners start on a Bach 7C, then move on to a 5C (late middle school), and finally a 3C for those who are searching for a path to follow (high school). Some people progress to the 1.5C or try other brands (if you practice a lot and it matches your embouchure). These recommendations are merely broad guidelines because everyone develops differently. Before making any mouthpiece changes, consult your music instructor or private tutor. Moving on from the 3C is not necessary if you are producing the sound you enjoy. I have played for 26 years, tried numerous mouthpieces, and have always returned to the 3C.Good fortune! Don't criticize a mouthpiece switch after only a few days; give it at least a month to take effect.

In arctic conditions, my son had a major performance coming up. My son's trumpet needs a plastic mouth piece, so his band teacher sent me to the neighborhood music stores. Thankfully, they didn't have the typical stock, so I turned to Amazon. The Mutec Plastic Trumpet Mouthpiece that was shipped to me in two days was half as expensive as the ones I might have purchased from the neighborhood music stores. My son used it consistently both inside and outside of performances because of how well it performed.

The ability to buzz while holding the trumpet and playing along with the fingering is a remarkable invention, although obviously incorrect fingerings have no effect on the buzzing's tone. He plays the trumpet, my son. After playing trombone for a long time, I have decided to learn french horn, hence I am utilizing the BERP for french horn. My french horn sound seems to get louder after buzzing through an exercise with the BERP. I suppose that using the BERP necessitates using a lot of air.Adolph Herseth claimed that he spent roughly an hour of his daily practice time buzzing on the mouthpiece. Therefore, buzzing is probably a good idea for my son if it worked for him. In addition, it has been said that Maynard Ferguson frequently buzzed in hotel rooms before evening concerts.
Some people might say that 7C is bigger than 3C because the number is bigger. However, others might say that 3C is bigger because C is a letter that comes later in the alphabet than 7.
There is no simple answer to this question as it depends on the player's individual preferences. Some players may find that a 3C mouthpiece provides a richer, fuller sound while others may prefer the brighter sound of a 7C. Ultimately, it is up to the player to experiment with different mouthpieces to find the one that suits their playing style and needs the best.
A 3C mouthpiece is a good beginner's mouthpiece because it is not too small or too big. It is also a good choice for people with smaller mouths.
3C mouthpieces are considered to be good for trumpet players because of their cup size and throat opening. These factors allow for a better air flow and a more focused sound.
The 5C is the most common size for trumpet players. It is slightly smaller than the 7C.
A 5C mouthpiece is a good choice for many trumpet players. It is a versatile size that can be used for both lead and jazz playing. The 5C is a good all-around mouthpiece and is a good choice for beginners.
