Mouthpiece Gold
brass player needs help with mouthpiece care!?
I just purchased a 250$ tuba mouthpiece ( gold plated Yamaha Jim Self series) and i was taught little instrument care as a middle school student, and I am still a little clueless in how to keep my mouthpiece lasting me for a long time. Please help, thank you!
There is really not much to do, a case might be nice. Wash in mild soapy water from time to time. Hopefully you will wear the gold plating off the rim by constant practice : ) This is really no problem, if you do wear the plate off you can have it replated for a few bucks. Mouthpieces are really difficult to damage and easy to fix.
