Hello all! I am thinking of purchasing a new mouthpiece from Pickett Brass and I was wanting to know what people think of their mouthpieces. I haven't really tried many of their products, but they are a local legend since I am from Kentucky. I plan to schedule a meeting to see for myself, but I would just like a little more insight before I do so. For specs, I plan to get a mouthpiece that has a rim size of 3, a cup depth of BC, a backbore of 10-2, and a throat of 26.

In my experience, they play well enough, but come up a little short in terms of how I want a mouthpiece to sound.That said, I didn’t spend an extensive amount of time testing out their different offerings. There are many options to choose from, and Peter Pickett and his employees are very kind and helpful folks.

The blank feels heavier than normal and the appearance has that polished silver look (although, at least in my book ... looks do not matter). At any rate, his mouthpieces are very high quality pieces and this Vizzutti Signature piece with it's unique back-bore gives me the ability to hit the high range much easier than other pieces I have tried. Peter also recently made a signature piece for Doc Severinson. Thanks to Paul Baron for the tip !!

Hard to compare as my piece is a custom piece with a .636 diameter instead of the normal Vizzutti diameter which is wider (3Cish ?). The piece plays great and is not too shallow ... of course that's totally relative. Peter does outstanding work and has recently made a custom piece for Doc Severinsen. His work was recommended to me by Paul Baron. Check him out at Pickett Brass in the search engines. Back to top leadtpt1955Veteran MemberJoined:

It's based on a Reeves 40S 692s cup/backbore but with a different rim contour. As I play a 40S for lead purposes when Paul told me about his signature model I ordered one from Peter. Fantastic piece!! With the altered rim I have experienced much better comfort, flexibility and endurance.If you play a 40 series mouthpiece or something similar you owe it to yourself to give Paul's signature piece a try. It's not listed on the website but Peter will respond to your emails promptly.And it's about half the price of the Reeves!

I eventually tossed out my custom top for a stock Pickett 5E. I just love that setup for the commercial side. How does the E cup compare to a Bach F cup or a Yam-shew-lead cup? Most of the time when I order "E" cups to try, they are too deep to be real lead pieces. I really like some of Pickett's rim profiles.Laskey's ES cup and Hammond's S cups, for example, are too deep/ un-supporting for me. Even Curry's 600 series S cup is a little to free. I find the Bach F cup to be the right depth but not quite the right shape/bb. The yam-yam-shew-lead is an excellent shape/bb/id combination but the rim profile is a little too rounded._________________Interlochen Arts Academy GED '06UCLA BA, BS '10NYU MM '12UMiami DMA '16derekganong.com Back to top Ximo_molinaRegular MemberJoined: 11 Aug 2018Posts: 68Location: Spain Posted: Sun Aug 11, 2019 9:10 am Post subject: trpt_music wrote: What are the differences in this Pickett Vizzutti piece and the Yamaha Vizzutti piece?

Thanks I tried the Pickett Vizzutti at a convention so I do not have long term experience with it but they are very different from the Yamaha Vizzutti in my opinion. The Pickett rim was more comfortable and thicker in feeling to me. The backbore and overall blow was very tight (did not work for me).

Shop, I would highly recommend it. I was recently fitted for a new Pickett mp and have an appointment tomorrow for a new leadpipe for my Yami6345 (possible rehab project). I'm a weekend warrior and they still treated me like a session player. Give them a try!

On top of making really great MPs, he is by far the best at running his website and keeping the customer informed as to the status of the piece all the way from order placed to order shipped with every step in between. He is the model for how a business should be run. There is never any question when you place an order as to whether it is in stock or needs to be made.Two thumbs up to Pickett Brass.

I would say my 5C has the same depth as my bach 1C. I use a C cup and the 10-2 backbore for classical/orchestral/jazz playing. It is very versatile and I also use it for Pops playing.The problem is one of cup shape as bach cup shapes differ from pickett. The C cup for both is.

Fairly similar, but the D and E versions are very different from, their same-lettered bach counterparts.The pickett D cup is more V shaped than the bach D cup but has a similar depth and thus a smaller volume. It has more support and is very compact. I use this cup for Eb/D trumpet with the 10-2 backbore.The pickett E cup is overall less bowl shaped than a bach E cup, has less volume, and is more V shaped. I really like the design for piccolo trumpet with the 10-2 backbore and many find it is great as a lead mouthpiece when combined with the 10-5 backbore. It's not as shallow as industry standard lead cups but has excellent support. For my lead playing I'm having something shallower made but with the same shape. A pickett F or G if you will._________________Interlochen Arts Academy GED '06UCLA BA, BS '10NYU MM '12UMiami DMA '16derekganong.com Back to top Jon ArnoldHeavyweight MemberJoined: 07 Jan 2002Posts: 2059Location: SW Ohio Posted: Tue Feb 05, 2013 1:08 pm Post subject: brassjunky wrote: How do you guys find your flexibility on the Pickett rims given it was mentioned in one post that they were a little wide and flattish?
