I just received this in the mail today. It is a metal Otto Link that was refaced by Freddie Gregory. Like I mentioned on some other posts, you can’t go wrong with anything Freddie Gregory worked on. I won it on ebay and the seller said it plays great with a huge fat warm sound! It plays great and is very easy to blow but I don’t think I would describe it as fat and warm. It makes me lean toward a Sanborn type style. I use to have a piece like this years ago. I might record another clip with more of a straight ahead sound and see how it sounds on that. I think this piece would sound killer on a pop gig with some reverb added. It has a nice resonance to the sound. I think it’s pretty cool.
Nice sound !!!, Is it a stock metal Link or a vintage one ?
Thanks

That was a modern Otto Link.
What was the measured opening after refacing ? (0,080″ or 0,085″)
.080 I believe.
Blows my mind what these great refacers do to modern junk mouthpieces.
