  • Great craftsmanship and customer service

    Ryon was able to walk me through the best way test mouthpieces and which top and shank would be the best for my playing.

  • Highly recommended

    These are among the highest quality brass instrument mouthpieces, lead pipes and trumpets available in the world. Peter is a wizard with mouthpiece rims, backbores and cups, and I loved working with Eric and Ryon and everyone else too.

  • Pickett is great

    Their selection was amazing. After I made my purchase, they kept me informed with detailed information. They were always available for any questions. The product arrived and I am delighted!

    International Shipping: Easy!

    We have customers all over the world - it's quite amazing how easy it is for all of us to connect. In the past, one of our challenges has been getting Pickett Brass mouthpieces and Blackburn Trumpets shipped to customers all over the world.  Shipping small items thousands of miles can be quite an undertaking.  Customers were hassled with additional phone calls from customs, additional fees, brokerage fees, taxes, duties, tariffs - it was messy.   We've now switched to DHL for our international shipping.  Our international customers will notice that we now calculate and collect all taxes and duties at checkout.   As a result, international customers do not have to do anything else nor pay any additional fees for their mouthpieces and instruments to arrive at their doorstep.  The ease and hassle-free nature of this new system make everybody's life so much better.
