  • Excellent mouthpiece!!
Size: D6M
Finally a company is making a really good mouthpiece for a decent price. I've played saxophone professionally for over forty years-yikes!-and I have recommended this piece to several other professional players that have purchased them and are totally satisfied with them. I have two #7's and a #6; they all play well, but even though they are "cad-cammed" and should play identically, they don't-but they are close. The second #7 I bought plays a wee bit better than the first #7 I bought, but that said, I am totally happy with the first one. I bought the second #7 as an experiment and was rewarded with a very-slightly-better piece. Ironically, sonically (and pneumonically, mnemonically speaking). I like the 6 better, though I usually play a wider tip opening than even the 7; the last few years I've been playing a Meyer NYUSA small chamber that the great Ted Klum refaced to .088", and I just had him make me one of his pieces, also at .088". I'm playing this one now, though, good as the Klums are. A fellow saxophonist that purchased one of these pieces just sold his NYUSA 6M Medium because this plays so well. In addition to this mouthpiece sounding good, it is very easy to control, and the intonation is spot on (for a sax). I'm playing a 78k Mk VI or a 298K Super 20; my buddy is playing a gold plated 6m Conn (tranny, with same side bell keys). Frankly, the D'Addario is MUCH more in tune on his Conn-the Meyer made his pitch spread a bit (high on top, low on bottom). To wrap up, it's a really good mouthpiece-very flexible sonically, great core, excellent intonation, easy to play and control. Many Meyer-like qualities without sounding just like a Meyer. Priced very reasonably by today's standards (I bought my first NYUSA brand new for $20!). Something I can recommend to anyone without hesitation-students included. Now, if they'd just make one for tenor....! ... show more

  • Smooth sounds
Size: D5M
No quality issues with mine. The sound is very smooth and well worth the money. If your kid is having trouble with a squeaky sax even with a new reed, this will fix a large part of that.

  • Good mouthpiece
Size: D6M
Very good mouthpiece! It is a little more open than my new Meyer and has a slightly larger chamber, so it definitely feels more open. Pitch seems better in the high register. I have played a couple of these and they seem to be pretty consistent.

  • Plays great but smells like urine
Size: D5M
Great mouthpiece, plays and feels great, but came with a moderate urine odor that won't come out. I've tried scrubbing it with dish soap, soaking in lukewarm water and vinegar, and even leaving it in a cold cup of mint herbal tea overnight work no success. Has no impact on playability at all and probably was just the result of a chemical used at the factory but still - its definitely a problem. ... show more

  • Bright and Easy Play
Size: D7M
Played long time on Vandoren A35 (2.06 mm) with 2/2.5 reeds. Purchased this one to try if will see any significant difference, and just to try something new. Played today morning in the park. OMG !!!! Very Bright, High Notes are so easy like no embouchure needed at all ))). It has much more high frequencies in the spectrum for sure. Probably because of material quality, because A35 sits with same position on cork. Sure there are other differences - like baffle profile etc. Really love this one. ... show more

  • Worth it!
Size: D6M
I downloaded an app to check how in tune I was. I kept thinking there was something wrong with me not being able to stay in tune, this coming from someone who played in middle and high school band in the late 80's early 90's. I finally decided to try a different set of reeds. Got closer but not spot on. Then decided to buy this mouthpiece. Wow! Wala fixed my issues. I don't know why I couldn't stay in tune with the old mouthpiece but this does project more sound, clearer, with excellent tones and is showing in tune on all the notes. Really an impressive difference. ... show more

  • Perfectly balanced, great vintage/modern sound
Size: D7M
This piece is perfectly balanced -- a darkish core with ample focus that can also shout if you push it. Full lower end, war top end. Easy subtone, nice altissimo, overall dimensions feel good in the embouchure. Only drawback (as others have noted) is that the bore is a little too small where it fits over the tenon cork -- keep a tube of cork grease handy. ... show more

  • **chefs kiss**
Size: D6M
I've been experimenting with a new mouthpiece for my setup and picked this one up on a whim. First impressions blew me out the water but I have a feeling that's only from seen years of experience under my belt. The mouthpiece bore might be a bit too aggressive for a beginner or novice saxophonist, but for anyone that's trying to open up their sound and fall more towards jazz this is a great buy for not too bad of a price point ... show more
