Retro Revival New Yorker Alto Saxophone Mouthpiece Review

July 16, 2016 by Steve 22 Comments

Today, I am reviewing the new Retro Revival New Yorker alto saxophone mouthpiece made by Joel Peskin (iReedMan) and Bob Sheppard.  Joel  and Bob have started a company called Retro Revival in which he produces exact copies of great vintage mouthpieces from the past.   His first two mouthpiece releases were for this New Yorker alto mouthpiece which is an exact copy of a New York Meyer Bros mouthpiece that Joel owns and the other is a metal tenor mouthpiece that is a copy of a great double ring Otto Link tenor mouthpiece.

For any of you that peruse Ebay regularly, you probably know that finding a NY Meyer Bros alto mouthpiece and a good condition double ring Otto Link can be a costly endeavor.  Both these mouthpieces can many times cost over 2000.00 each!  I think we would all be thankful if someone came up with a less costly alternative where we could get a mouthpiece of the same quality and playability for quite a bit less money.  The aim of these Retro Revival mouthpiece is just that!

Retro Revival New Yorker Alto Saxophone Mouthpiece 6 & 7

Joel was kind enough to send me a 6 and 7 sample of the Retro Revival New Yorker to review.  The mouthpieces came in a nice wooden box with a ligature and mouthpiece cap included (you can see them in the bottom picture on this page)

Upon inspection, the New Yorker appears to be well crafted.  It is faced by master mouthpiece craftsman Eric Falcon so I expected nothing less than perfection.  The table, rails and tip look beautiful.  The baffle is a rollover that descends into a medium sized chamber smoothly and evenly.

I was very curious to try these mouthpieces because I had tried a New York Meyer Bros mouthpiece years ago that was owned by Bob Ackerman.  This was a smaller tip opening piece of a 5 but it played great.  It had a beautiful pure singing quality to the tone.  I was very tempted to buy it but Mr. Ackerman wanted 450.00 for it as I remember and at the time I thought that was crazy so I passed.    Since these new Retro Revival pieces are supposedly exact copies of a great playing Meyer Bros mouthpiece I was very interested in trying them out.

 

Retro Revival New Yorker Alto Saxophone Mouthpiece

Here’s a quote from the  Retro Revival website about the New Yorker alto mouthpiece:

“The New Retro Revival “New Yorker” Alto Sax Mouthpiece is the real thing: an exact replica of the original Meyer Bros New York, the mouthpiece of choice for alto greats Cannonball Adderley, Phil Woods and many more. Partnered  with Master mouthpiece craftsman Eric Falcon, we have replicated this rare and sought after mouthpiece down to the smallest detail.

We all have experienced the risk, expense and frustration of searching for vintage mouthpieces on the internet. An original untouched Meyer Bros is indeed finding that needle in the haystack. The gamble on eBay is considerable. You can easily end up spending well over $2,000 on one that’s mediocre or unplayable, as shown on the photo on the left margin of a completed eBay auction.

With our Retro Revival mouthpiece, you can rest assure that we make every replica New Yorker to the highest standard of performance based on a lifetime of acquired knowledge and experience.

As lifelong professionals who share a passion for tone quality and performance, we joined together to apply decades of experience and knowledge to the development of an excellent yet affordable Meyer Bros replica for today’s alto players.

From our own extensive mouthpiece collections, we selected the best of the best to clone, painstakingly narrowing it down to ‘The One” – the Meyer that we all agreed delivered the fattest sound, fastest articulations, evenness of color and consistency of intonation.

We’re proud to offer a faithful reproduction of this rare mouthpiece in a model that meets the highest standards down to the smallest detail. We use the most advanced CAD technology and highest quality Vintage Formula German Rod Rubber. Each mouthpiece is meticulously hand finished and, most importantly, individually tested and approved by professionals.

We know you will be impressed with its consistency and play-ability. Most of all, we’re confident that you’ll be rewarded with years of enjoyment and artistic satisfaction playing the Retro Revival “New Yorker.”

Retro Revival New Yorker Alto Saxophone Mouthpiece

I had the two Retro Revival New Yorker mouthpieces for about 3 weeks and had a chance to do a lot of playing on them.   The morning of the recording of the sound clip I had worked with two Skype students on Charlie Parker’s Chi Chi and Parker’s Mood so you hear quite a bit of “Bird” melodies and licks interspersed within the sound clips as they were on my mind.

I recorded each mouthpiece with a slightly harder reed and a softer reed because I quite honestly could not figure out which I preferred.  For about a week, I kept going back and forth between the reeds and in the end I decided to spend a little extra time and record on both.

I also had a heck of a time trying to figure out which tip opening I liked better.   I had thought that it would be easy to decide but there were different aspects to each tip opening that I really enjoyed and it was very hard to choose. (Maybe if you have an opinion on which sounds better you can help me out in the comments below…….)

Retro Revival New Yorker Alto Saxophone Mouthpiece

The Retro Revival “New Yorker”   played great!   For me they had a classic bebop sound and tone.   Their intonation was good and they were smooth and even up and down the range of the horn.  As you listen to the clips, there will be times where I all of a sudden slow down and play long held out notes or melodies.   It was during these times that I really relished what the “New Yorker” alto sax mouthpieces brought to the table.   In my opinion, these mouthpieces have a very classic Meyer compact centered tone.   Sometimes when I refer to a classic Meyer tone I feel the reader can interpret that to mean “average” because Meyer mouthpieces are so common.  That is not the case!  When I say classic Meyer tone I am referring more to the sound of an amazing Meyer.   One that sings and whose tone sparkles and vibrates.   My first thought is of the sound of Phil Woods on “Warm Woods” or “Musique Du Bois”, two of the first albums I owned in high school.  ( I didn’t intentionally do this but I think the sound of these mouthpieces reminded me of Phil Woods so much that I played “The Summer Knows” a few times during the clips also which is from Musique Du Bois.  I didn’t realize this until right now as I’m writing……Cool!!)

As I listen back to the sound clips,  there are also bluesy type lines that are reminiscent of Cannonball’s sound  I think.   Cannonball was such a monster of tone that I can’t say I sound like Cannonball,  but once in awhile I hear a whisper of his tone coming through on the recording……..it’s in there I think……….

I said the intonation was good but I would like to add that I think the centered core of the tone makes the “New Yorker” easier to hone in on the intonation.  On many of the mouthpieces I review I have to thing about intonation and whether I’m sharp or flat but the New Yorker pieces just seemed to be in the zone intonation wise for me.

There is a lot of material in these four sound clips but I repeated a lot of the same ideas and lines on purpose so you can get a good comparison between the 6 & 7 and perhaps how the different reeds play and sound on each mouthpiece.  I hope it helps many of you out in making a choice.

Below is a picture from the Retro Revival website of the box, ligature and mouthpiece cap the New Yorker comes with.  They are a standard Rico “Harrison” style ligature and Rico cap.

The Retro Revival New Yorker alto saxophone mouthpiece is a great playing mouthpiece that I really enjoyed playing and recording with.  In my opinion it is one of the best choices I have played for a vintage Meyer type sound without the high cost.  If you read this review, listen to the clips and decide the New Yorker mouthpiece is worth a try, you can purchase one on the Retro Revival mouthpiece website.

Congratulations to Joel Peskin, Bob Sheppard and Eric Falcon for making an excellent well crafted mouthpiece reminiscent of a great vintage Meyer Bros mouthpiece!  Great Job!

Disclosure: I have not received any compensation or products for writing this review. I am borrowing these mouthpieces from Joel at Retro Revival who was kind enough to let me borrow them. Regardless, I only review mouthpieces and other saxophone related products that I enjoy and believe will be a good choice for other saxophone players to try also.    Steve Neff

    I would give the edge to the 6 with the softer reed, although the 7 with the softer reed is also a classic sound. Both are terrific. Even though Cannonball played a vintage Meyer 5, I feel that the 7 with the soft reed has some of the sonic “fatness” that he got. No pun intended. I am curious to see how this piece stacks up against other Meyer copies you have played. I’m going to go back and listen to them.

    While i like all of these set ups, the 7 with the softer reed really sounds authentic, without sounding dated. What i mean is, yes it has a Cannonball/WoodsVibe, i can hear it on current mainstream jazz. The upper pitches are more balanced with the mid and low pitches, a nice even scale. The 6 Was nice, but sounded thinner in the upper end. Also, sounded as if wasn’t locked in as much, tone wise.

    You always sound great on every piece! Thanks for Sharing. I see a 7 in my future.
    BTW, i play the Super D tenor piece (8* Rhodium plated)

    Steve, As always, you sound great on all of these mouthpieces. You sound more in control of the sound an intonation on these Retro Revival Meyer mouthpieces and have the kind of consistency of color and focus you have on tenor. I think you sounded best on the 6 with the harder reed, though the 7 with the stronger reed allowed you to have more flexibility and the ability to bend the notes and sound like Cannonball with all his subtle inflections and bluesi-ness. The 6s have a very compact sound with a solid core to the pitch and would probably be more all-round mouthpieces for playing in a big band or even some classical saxophone literature, but the 7s might allow for more individuality of sound. Again, you sound great on anything you play. I really appreciate your reviews.

    Hey Steve,
    After reading your review and listening to your sound clip I ordered a Retro Revival New Yorker #7 of my own. It arrived a few days ago and it’s KILLIN’!!! It has surpassed all of my expectations in terms of tone, color, flexibility and response. Joel was amazing to deal with… a total pro in every respect. I’m 100% satisfied with my purchase and your review was instrumental in my decision making. Thanks so much for your great service to the saxophone community.

    Hello Steve!
    You sound very good on these mouthpieces!
    Is the openings of the new or old Meyer Mouthpieces
    identical with the retro mouthpieces?
    What is the difference between the old
    and new Meyer mouthpieces and
    Retro mouthpieces?
    Kind regards,
    Charlie

      Charlie, I think the tip opening are the same as the Meyer tip openings. Since they are copies of old Meyers I would assume they are pretty close if not identical. I haven’t played or seen the originals they were copied from so I can’t testify to that………..

    I would bet they copied a good ny meyer 5m. The 7 and 8 tip opening probably wouldnt be as authentic because meyer never made one past a 6. I figure the 5 tip is the best copy of the original facing. I just ordered one so we will see.

    My personal like was the NY 6 tip opening with the with Rigotti Gold 3 Light Reed. I thought you expressed your feel and tone better on this mp. You seemed to be more comfortable with this set up. Of course your playing was great on all of them, I just liked this one better.I play a 105 7* tip opening on tenor and have been playing a 7 on alto but after listening to you clips I’m considering trying a 6 tip opening on alto. I just ordered a RR Slant 7 tip opening for my tenor, should be here in a few days. Thanks so much for your all your reviews.

I am a music book junkie and I have to say that your books are the most clear, user friendly, and helpful books I own.  They are my absolute favorites and I only wish I had them years ago.  I wouldn’t change a thing about the experience I had in acquiring my degree at Berklee, but my playing has perhaps grown more in the time I’ve spent buried in your books and lessons.  Keep up the great work!!! Thanks, John

I want to say something about Steve Neff’s series of lessons, Beginner Jazz Improvisation. For a couple of years I tried many beginner lessons and my problem was that there was a gap between lessons that were fairly simple and ones that I was not quite ready for and my progress stalled out. That problem was solved with the series Beginner Jazz Improvisation. He guides you step by step along the way and builds a foundation for learning jazz and blues. He leaves no question about what to practice … Read more

By the way, BIG COMPLIMENTS to you, Steve! Not only are you a great player, you are also a great teacher! I, too, am a woodwinds player/teacher. I have new inspiration to play and teach because of you. The concepts and “thinking” is similar to what I already learned in College, but hearing you explain and PLAY the concepts REALLY MAKES THE DIFFERENCE! Also, your written patterns are more interesting than other books I have seen! Keep up the good work. I will be recommending your sit… Read more

Hey Steve, My name is Jason Freese and I play keyboards and sax in the band Green Day.  I grew up taking sax lessons from Eric Marienthal when I was a kid and got out of it for a long time. I ran into you on youtube while searching for sax stuff. I bought a whole bunch of your lessons and have been loving it! Thanks! Here is my wikipedia so you can see the albums I’ve played on….Thanks again. It’s sparked my interest in practicing again.   Jason

I am enjoying your style of teaching, and you’ve done a great job with the videos….good sound quality and well constructed lessons.  Balances the more guitaristic material found on the majority of guitar based programs.  Jazz vocab is what I’m all about at this point in the journey.   I especially dig the fact that you’ve studied with Bergonzi…helps me see his voluminous output in a more  bite sized way.

Never really had lessons before just kinda worked things out on my own. Was in a rut but your lessons are really helpful in opening melodic possibilities. Ur an awesome resource to the saxophone community. Thanks for sharing.

Just to say thanks for your advice and lessons.  I’ve just read your amazing story.  I really appreciate what you do in regards to teaching.  I have bought a couple of your lessons and frankly they’re undersold.   I’ve learned much more with these two lessons than with 2 years of sax teachers.   Thanks so much………..

Thank You Steve. I think that I will be busy for years. Thank You for your great contribution to jazz music. Your books, more than teaching “how to play jazz”, actually teach “how to speak jazz”. I wish I found your methods years ago.

I just started looking at my lessons and I have to say, dude you are awesome.  I ABSOLUTELY will learn from you!  I started the tenor about 1 ½ yrs ago and have since picked up an alto, and more recently a soprano.  I spend most of the time on the tenor, followed by soprano, and have only gotten to the alto a few times.  I think I’ll be sticking with tenor.  I’m having a great time and hope one day to play well enough to get regular gigs.  I’ve been playing keys for about 35 years (… Read more

Steve, just a note to say thanks.

I’ve been playing a long time, but your material, laid out in such a thoughtful way, helps me to understand concepts in a new and deeper way.

You are a true gift to the jazz community.

I’m an experienced player in the pop/soul/funk areas of music and, previously, classical.  Over the decades I’ve been playing, I’ve always felt that I could do what I needed in those styles of music.  However, recently I began to feel limited by my use of the same old licks. When I discovered Steve Neff’s website, and heard the audio examples based on the exercises in his books, I realized they were what I needed.  I purchased all of them and have been working on them since.  It’s very hard work… Read more

I have been a member of Neffmusic for more than a year now and have enjoyed every minute of it! I have not only been going thru the Dominant Bebop Scale lessons and book (OUTSTANDING!) but the mouthpiece reviews, solo clips and transcriptions are very interesting. Steve approach to beginning and intermediate improv have given me many new pathways to teach my high school jazz ensemble students. Congratulations Steve, great product!

Your major diatonic patterns book is great. I”m studying the first twenty patterns (first twenty pages) each day with different articulation each day and slowly increasing the tempo each week or so.  There is a noticeable improvement in finger coordination across all keys and its amazing how much more secure I feel on the difficult keys when attempting to play pieces with 5+ flats/sharps. I’m able to sort out the fingerings for these pieces now much more quickly than before, often in one or two … Read more

Steve’s monthly lessons are entirely valuable. Without brow beating, he tells you all the stuff you deep down know you really should be working on, instead of just relying on the same old patterns. In spite of the fact that you’re taking a video lesson, Steve’s presentation is comfortable and “real”. In a little more than a year, he’s developed a library of lessons that seem to offer any player a lifetime’s worth of practice material. I’m just glad I stumbled upon it.… Read more
