    I like how he pulled a bass trombone out of absolute nowhere at the end lol

    I've found in most of my playing that the choice only matters to the player, whether it makes it easier to play certain notes or air travels through it in a certain way. But through everyone I have talked to the size ans shape of mouthpiece really doesn't matter when it comes to the sound they produce.

    The gold plated gives you the best sound.

    The Sterling sounded best IMHO, not that you asked if course Lol. The Kadja was a little too dark for my taste.

    Hi Nathan Fulmizi, one question.....
    the gold plated, how long does it resist?.... because they told me that after 2 years the gold plating begins to lose
    or only happens with the no originals gold plated mouthpieces?......please help me because I want to buy a gold plated mouthpiece but I have afraid that it will lose gold of the mouthpiece
    and sorry, what brand is your trombone tenor small bore?

      @bassbonen8122  5 лет назад

      Kenny Yupanqui Catacora You can get gold Re plated so if you like the gold get that. The trombone in this video is an Olds Ambassador, but my current trombone is a Conn 6H

      thank you, so if I buy a gold plated mouthpiece, will it resist with the gold plating intact for 3,4 or 5 years?
      It's correct?

    Great video Nathan, thanks for sharing. I was talking to a sales clerk yesterday, do you or your colleagues come upon a situation where a megatone mouthpiece becomes useful. I like the brightness, but sounds similar to a trumpet.

    • @bassbonen8122
      @bassbonen8122  7 лет назад

      Stephen Coleman I play on a gold plated Vincent Bach 5G Megatone mouthpeice on my large bore tenor. I use it for legit playing mostly. Depending on your sound concept it will depend on what musical situation your in and what kind of music it is. Everyone’s different. For me I have more of a round dark sound so a megatone on a large bore evens things out for what I want, but I wouldn’t get to caught up in gear it’s the chops that make or break ya. Try things and see what works best for you. Hope this helps (:

      Nathan Fulmizi Thanks for the quick reply, I'm mostly playing big band and Top 40 w/a Bach 42 Tenor, will likely stick with Vincent 6 1/2 as to help balance out trumpets. However, will probably trade the 42 for a 36. You've been very helpful my friend, thank you.

    • @bassbonen8122
      @bassbonen8122  7 лет назад

      Stephen Coleman Your welcome! 61/2 AL is great for big band. Also I’m actually on a new mouthpeice with my small bore so this video is dated. I now play on a 5 G since I double on bass Trombonist a lot (and bass bone is my main axe). Happy practicing and good luck!

    HELP! I just got the basic Bundy Trombone (Looks like a basic Student Model thing) -no mouthpiece? Is this a small shank mouthpiece? What mouthpiece should I get? I don't reslly care about sound quality. I just need to be able to make all the notes as easily as possible (I am not going to have much time to practice until next year so I would like to get started as easily as possible THANKS, -P

    • @bassbonen8122
      @bassbonen8122  6 лет назад +1

      Peter Welsh that is a small shank. Buy a 61/2 al Vincent Bach, or an 11, 12, or 7 c any of those will work

      mmm... the first three sound extremely similar, only the heavy has a different Charaktere.
      Make a realistic recording of a trombone is quiet difficult, perhaps in reality the difference between the mouthpieces is bigger. You can try such a video in a bigger room with few meters more distance, not too much reverb.

    • @bassbonen8122
      @bassbonen8122  6 лет назад

      sebthi thanks for stopping by. Actually my set up is different now. I play on a Bach 5G for my small bore, and for commercial music I play on a Harry waters custom guidings and Webster mouth peice.
