    That contraption is a band director’s savior for stuck mouthpieces. I’ve used that thing 12 times as a student teacher.

    I would've probably just let the instrument fall mouthpiece first to the floor since that seems to be the common practice with kids these days but I guess you took it to the next level. So thumbs up for that :D

    Sorry, tell me again what that device is you used to beat the mouthpiece into the bugle? Never seen one before 😂 😂 😂

    • @kochi3accordion
      @kochi3accordion Před 6 lety +14

      i think its called a hammer but maybe youre better off asking a professional mouthpiece remover guy

    My high school band teacher/director has that tool and he has to use it pretty frequently and it's a great product

    I was honestly just as surprised as you were when it actually worked.

    • @feloria1862

      Its amazing what screws can do this device could easily apply over 100 pounds of force.

  • @colejackson6396
    @colejackson6396 Před 6 lety +13

    That was actual surprise when the mouthpiece came out of the bugle after the hammer was taken to the mouthpiece.

  • @jakepatterson8815
    @jakepatterson8815 Před 6 lety +13

    you hurt my soul when you hit the mouthpiece with the hammer

  • @Metal-Possum
    @Metal-Possum Před 6 lety +5

    I bought a similar one on Aliexpress, cost about $6. and worked first time on my friend's vintage/antique cornet. Never use a hammer or any other force, these tools are the ONLY way to get the job done effortlessly. Also, I love wingnuts, so it gets an extra 5 stars from me.

  • @ooonightshadeooo5098

    My band teacher has this tool. Removed a mouthpiece that had been stuck for a week. Good product.

  • @theyellowentity9668
    @theyellowentity9668 Před 6 lety +1

    Once had to use one of those in band when I dropped my trumpet. Didn’t know how to use it so I ended up pulling it out using the extra leverage. I wish I knew back then, because pulling out takes way too much effort XD.

  • @helios5868
    @helios5868 Před 5 lety +1

    Perfect for band directors dealing with elementary school students or the intellectual equivalent!
    If you ever get your hands on a cheap, say, flugelhorn mouthpieces, that might be really interesting.

  • @viscosity7893

    So were you able to get the wooden mouthpiece out of that trombone behind you?

  • @professorseverustobiassnap1566

    Lol I thought you might hit the mouthpiece. With your hand like kids do but you hit it with a hammer 😂

  • @jonathanj.4800
    @jonathanj.4800 Před 6 lety +3

    Hey! Let's go hammer our mouthpiece into our trumpets and buy one of these! :D

  • @bobrexford1718
    @bobrexford1718 Před 6 lety +5

    When your mouthpiece is stuck, this type of device is the only answer... do not resort to pliers to attempt removal.
    ... don't ask.

    Someone in your Salvation Army band is going to be very glad you own that. It may be years before that happens, but it will happen, and most likely more than once.

  • @MikeSpeakman
    @MikeSpeakman Před 6 lety +1

    Looks like a copy of the "Bobcat" mouthpiece puller, i have a bobcat puller and it works amazingly well on any instrument from Soprano cornet to BBb bass.
    This looks like a great money saving alternative (My Bobcat cost £50 a few years ago), my only niggle is the small wings on the bolts you turn to pull the mp. It would be much easier if they where bigger. other than that it seems a decent enough tool that all band rooms should have access to :)

  • @mattburchett6921
    @mattburchett6921 Před 6 lety +1

    This is a copy of the bobcat mouthpiece puller design. Best design in my opinion if you are only going to have one tool to do this job. Glad I have it from my instrument repair days now that my son is playing french horn in band.

  • @kevinglynn8645
    @kevinglynn8645 Před 6 lety +1

    Warning: pullers do not work on a denis wick ultra due to its shortness.

  • @gavinent115
    @gavinent115 Před 6 lety +1

    Life hack for all y’all, if your mouthpiece is ever stuck, get ice cubes and let the ice cubes melt not fully but some and with a dry firm hand twist out. If it still doesn’t come out, then fine but a mouthpiece remover such as this one.

  • @pukalo
    @pukalo Před 6 lety +1

    I wish I had one of those when I removed the mouthpiece from my bugle which had been stuck in there for over 20 years.

    That's exactly the sort of MP remover that lived in my high school band room in the early 90s.

  • @crimsun7186
    @crimsun7186 Před 6 lety

    Considering the tool works the way it does, one can see that remover both denting the mouthpiece and the lead pipe while you try to remove it. You get not much torque on the top with wing screws with wings that small.

    • @isaacrichter1101
      @isaacrichter1101 Před 4 lety

      It is good for getting mouthpieces out of really old beat up instruments. I brought my trombone from the 1960s to school to get the mouthpiece out a year or two ago. I wouldn't use it on a nice instrument, but it's great for old instruments or instruments in bad shape.

  • @JonatasMonte
    @JonatasMonte Před 6 lety +2

    Won't it damage the instrument though?

    • @JonatasMonte
      @JonatasMonte Před 6 lety

      I'm asking it because brass is so flimsy that sometimes I fear I might bend it with my hands.

    • @BrandoMan
      @BrandoMan Před 6 lety

      JonatasMonte Ive seen it used before, it might leave a little scuff, but I doubt anything else

    • @Disgreetful
      @Disgreetful Před 6 lety

      JonatasMonte the only part of the instrument it really touches is the end of the leadpipe, and only the side where the hole it, which probably gets hit a few times from putting a mouthpiece in anyway

    • @Disgreetful
      @Disgreetful Před 6 lety +1

      JonatasMonte also, the pulling goes straight out, so the only way you're damaging the instrument is if you start stretching the leadpipe. If that's the case, that mouthpiece has become King Arthur's Sword, and you'll need a new instrument. Or just a professional, or something

  • @jasonbusky
    @jasonbusky Před 6 lety +2

    My band teacher used one of these removers on another persons trumpet in my band, and it was so stuck it broke their lead pipe from the valves

    • @ayyyyquafina
      @ayyyyquafina Před 6 lety

      Loooooooool

    • @TWX1138
      @TWX1138 Před 6 lety

      Doesn't sound like it was being used correctly. It's not supposed to clamp around the leadpipe, it's supposed to clamp around the mouthpiece tube and press on the end of the leadpipe. If it were going to damage the leadpipe it would be by denting the end of the leadpipe.

    • @jasonbusky
      @jasonbusky Před 6 lety

      no it was on the mouthpiece just is was so stuck it started pulling off the leadpipe

    Someone decided to prank me by making the mouthpiece hard to get out, they did too well a job. A mouthpiece remover like the one in the video (Higher quality though) did not work. It had to be machine pulled out. This was on a euphonium.
