How does a TurboWood mouthpiece perform compared to Brass?

* When you play soft, the tone is even warmer & sweeter.

* When you play loud, it’s even LOUDER & meaner.
* There is noticeably more headroom to play louder than on the same mouthpiece in Brass, Bronze or Nickel Silver. In other words, TurboWood has a higher “Max capacity” of volume output. Adam refers to this extra volume as “Beast Mode!”
Great for:
* Playing in extreme temperatures, such as outside gigs in the winter. The wood never feels cold on your lips even in an extremely cold climate.
* Players who are looking for the warmest tone possible.
* Players who want a higher maximum volume capacity.
Not so good for:
* Players who don’t have a well-developed control of their airstream. The same effect that makes the tone warmer and sweeter when you play softly can diffuse the sound and make articulations too fluffy or undefined for beginners or intermediate players.
* If you have a diffuse tone quality and want it to be more “centered”, you’ll likely be better off with a mouthpiece made in Brass, Bronze or Nickel Silver.
* Not many classical players have chosen a TurboWood mouthpiece for traditional Classical repertoire so far. However, we’d be happy to be proven otherwise!
