Mutec MTC-7C-BL Trumpet 7C Black Plastic Mouthpiece

I’ve been playing trumpet for years and have spent ££££ on mouthpieces. I got this plastic 3c as I was playing a few outdoor gigs and the weather forecast was saying it was going to be freezing. I thought a plastic mouthpiece might be a bit kinder on the lips in the cold. I have to say I was impressed. It’s comfy and projects well and I can slot in the notes easily. The tone isn’t as rich as a metal mp and peddle notes won’t sound but its very playable and great for the cold.

My toddler took a shine to an old bugle I have..... A plastic mouthpiece was a safer option - exactly what I needed

Superb, very good quality very pleased with the purchase

Very happy

Just the job

I bought this exact model, from a reputable music shop, who I buy a lot of parts and accessories from.The quality of the moulding is terrible. There's a visible seam running down both sides, ripples in the surface of the plastic (caused by a moulding fault known as jetting), and a big ugly lump on one side that looks like someone broke it off the plastic parts tree off an Airfix kit, instead of cutting it.There's nothing wrong with buying a plastic mouthpiece, but there's plenty wrong with this one.My advice is to buy a Kelly, or a Faxx. Faxx clear plastic mouthpieces are a similar price, but they actually seem to know how to make them. Kelly are great, but now a bit more expensive than they used to be, and less places are prepared to stock them.If you were buying this to replace a mouthpiece that came with an instrument, don't bother. The one you already have is probably a lot better made than this.

The playLITE trumpet mouthpiece is not only made of a much nicer material, it sounds a heck of a lot better AND costs only £4.99. This one sounds like it's leaking air somehow. Not impressed.
