  • Turns a $250.00 horn into a $1500.00.
Style: SL4
I like everything about the mouthpiece. It’s a Vandoren. It’s tone and intonation are remarkable. I use one on my alto too and the quality is superb. Want to turn a cheap horn into a professional model this is step one.

  • Easy to play and great tone quality
Style: SL3
I use this mouthpiece with my Yanagisawa curved soprano sax and am very happy with it. I'm a beginner on soprano sax, yet this mouthpiece is easy to play and sounds great. I also have a Selmer Concept mouthpiece, which has a slightly warmer sound. Choosing between the two is a matter of taste; they are both excellent. This mouthpiece is somewhat larger than some others, so I found my Rovner Versa ligature did not fit. So I got a Vandoren Optimum ligature that works great with this mouthpiece. ... show more

  • Table is not flat
Style: SL5
low notes was very hard to produce its like only 20% hit on Bb, same reed on a 4C 100%hit on Bb. I initiated return but I took a gamble by flattening the table and the curve angle and now it is perfect, 100% hit on low Bb on a legere 2.75. Just search sopranoplanet in YT for fixing the table, sometimes it is not you or the saxophone that is the fault. ... show more

This is an excellent soprano saxophone mouthpiece for classical playing. The thing you get with Vandoren mouthpieces is consistency & quality. Highly Recommended!
