Soprano

(A Composite Resin)

(2014)

As you may be aware over the years we have had numerous request from professional as well as sem-professional musicians to manufacturer a "less expensive" mouthpiece for Soprano.

The manufacturing techniques we use to make high-tech CNC metal mouthpieces are quite different than producing composite mouthpieces out of plastic resins and therefore up until now we have avoided using those types of manufacturing techniques.

In any case we are pleased to inform the saxophone community that we have produced a outstanding "traditional" mouthpiece made from the finest composite resins on the market.

Designed by Master Artisan Gary Sugal.......
We have successfully digitized an original design into our computers and have taken our best facings, to produce an out-sounding affordable mouthpiece.

The sound is centered as well as fat dark-w/slight a edge-(when needed)

All the composite mouthpieces have there own original sound. They are ideal for section and solo players. It has a nice medium baffle matched with a hand finished medium chamber.. offering the player a slightly darker sound to blend and stay perfectly in tune

An optional Cap and Ligature are available.

Composite Resin : $57.50
