Hammond 6MP Mellophone Mouthpiece

The Hammond 6MP Mellophone Mouthpiece is a marching-focused mellophone mouthpiece designed for a centered, open feel with a wide spectrum of sound. Hammond describes the 6MP as a standard choice for mellophone throughout the marching world, with a deep V-shaped cup, 20 throat, and #4 backbore.

This is a good choice for marching band and drum corps mellophone players looking for a dedicated mellophone mouthpiece rather than adapting a trumpet or French horn mouthpiece. Players like the 6MP for its focused response, open feel, and strong sound projection on the field.

Please note that all mouthpiece sales are final—no returns or exchanges are accepted—but we offer demo mouthpieces in store so you can try before you buy and find the perfect fit for your playing style.

Important note: Mellophones commonly use two different receiver tapers depending on the instrument brand and model. We strongly recommend bringing your instrument in so we can test fit the mouthpiece and make sure you get the correct taper. We typically stock Blessing, Yamaha & Hammond style mellophone mouthpieces to help match your instrument properly.
