Edward Plater Signature – Trumpet Mouthpiece – musicRioja

The trumpet mouthpiece collection designed with Edward Plater, an internationally recognized Venezuelan trumpeter and a reference in classical and popular music.

After months of working with Edward, we have created a trumpet collection with the exact specifications that allow him to develop his full potential. At musicRioja, we make it available to any musician who wants to play with the same model.

Design with CFD technology

The internal geometry of this mouthpiece has been optimized using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis, ensuring efficient airflow and the best playing comfort:

• Reduced fatigue
• Greater tuning stability
• Better control in all registers

Materials and manufacturing

Manufactured using 3D printing with high-precision thermoplastic polymer, skin-safety certified. The rim is completely smooth and polished, ensuring soft, comfortable and safe contact during prolonged use. Unlike metal mouthpieces, it reduces the risk of irritation with prolonged contact.
