Thank you for viewing. This is a practice rim (visualizer) mouthpiece. You can set it on your instrument and check your embouchure while looking in a mirror. It's also helpful for finding the part of your lips that vibrates well (the sweet spot). Recommended for practice and warm-ups when you can't play your instrument. There may be scratches from the manufacturing process. The instrument in the example photos is not included. This is not for performance. Please refrain from purchasing if you are overly concerned about minor imperfections. #Trumpet #Mouthpiece
