My daughter has been playing mellophone in marching band for a short while. She was initially playing with a trumpet mouthpiece, which got the job done, but as she developed into a better player her tone was still lacking. After trying some other options, we decided to take the plunge and purchase a mellophone mouthpiece. Her tone immediately improved drastically. The open bore also provides much more possibility for a bigger marching band sound.

It's not a BACH or a Yamaha or whatever you are used to but if you have a mellophone, this is what you are looking for. It is a solid, heavy, comfy, legit mouthpiece that is just a little bigger and a whole lot deeper than your trumpet 7C. I love the sound. My mello (used off marketplace) came with a "Yamaha MELLO" mouthpiece and just has poor lower range. I guess if you are just learning a brass instrument its okay but if you have any chops at all the Blessing is like, "Yeah Baby"

Bought this for my son to use with his marching mellophone. He absolutely LOVES IT! This is a great step up from the basic mouthpieces that come with most school marching instruments.

The first week it was shinning like brand new... The next week it looked as if I had this mouthpiece for years..the quality in the price I feel was unacceptable

As a marching band section leader I went looking for a mouthpiece that would give my section a better sound. As the Mello 6 mouthpieces often limits our sound and tone color. I was reading many articles and sources on what mouthpiece fits best on mellophone. The blessing 5 popped up multiple times so i ordered it.The blessing 5 has a much bigger diameter than stock mellophone mouthpieces, and also has a very deep cup. My range was cut about 4 half steps, but that encouraged me to build my range. After 2 weeks I managed to play the notes I used to play on a Mello 6. But going back to the mello 6 mouthpiece to play, my range improved significantly. The sound of the mellophone comes out... broader. You get a bigger sound, and sounds dark, almost like a actual tenor horn. Not for a beginner.In a ensemble with a marching band. It begins to decline. Pitch on this mouthpiece proves to be a challenge, as you are usually flat even if you are pushed in, especially in the upper range. You stick out from the rest of section and sounds rather blatty on the field. You don't get the tradition 12 man mellophone sound with 1 mellophone soundling like a tenor horn. However, when it comes to mid to low runs, it sounds very nice.With a lot practice, you can get a really nice sound with this mouthpiece. Pitch, and high register is a issue, but is overcomable. Sounds great individually, but not in a section with different mouthpieces.
