Best. Mouthpiece. Ever.
By Jacob M
As a trumpeter I have tried many mouthpieces. Some offer clarity in the mid range at the expense of ease in the upper range. Some sacrifice tonal stability for brightness and extension of upper register. This mouthpiece, however, provides all of these for me. Nobody's lips are the same, but personally, this is my favorite mouthpiece. I had tried a buddy's Dennis Wick London 4x and decided I needed one for myself. Seeing the 5x online for such a great price (and gold plated nonetheless), I decided to give it a whirl. Seems pretty similar to the 4x, and I love it. I will and do recommend this to any trumpeter who wants a balanced mouthpiece.

Excellent mouthpiece.
By Karl Klein
This mouthpiece is remarkable. I recently reintroduced myself to trumpeting with this mouthpiece, as well as a few others. Between the 7c, the 5c, and this 5x, the 5x is undoubtedly my most favored. I have no issues projecting the lower register with this piece, unlike reports I have heard elsewhere to the contrary. And furthermore, it brings the upper register with exceptional ease. Being gold-plated it is alleged to have a darker sound. I haven't noticed this precisely, but I have noticed a sound 'purity' difference between my other mouthpieces. It is smooth, and very easy to handle/manipulate to my aim.I was lucky enough to purchase this around 1 o'clock a.m. on a Friday morning through Amazon, and at this particular time, it seems that they greatly lowered the price of the item. Which means I paid about $100 less than it's original retail value. Best deal on this Gold Plated mouthpiece PERIOD.
