• [New Product] Yamaha Introduces the "Neo Mouthpiece Series" for British-Style Brass Bands!

  

  2025/07/04

  Yamaha is pleased to announce the release of the "Neo Mouthpiece Series, specifically designed for British-style brass bands.
  
  This series pursues the uniquely warm and deep tonal colors of brass instruments, incorporating Yamaha's own newly developed "Neo™ Special Heat Treatment" (NSHT) technology. This process alters the properties of the metal composition in the cup, rim, and shank of the mouthpiece, achieving the high quality and performance demanded by British-style brass bands. Furthermore, a new design that adds thickness to the area close to the lips optimizes the weight balance. This provides a solid blowing resistance while delivering a smooth and even playing feel from the high to the low registers.
  
  A wide range of mouthpieces is available, from cornet to tuba. We invite you to try the "Neo Mouthpiece Series," which embraces new possibilities to fulfill the desires of every performer!
