Tenor High Baffle Reviews

Ponzol M2 Gold Tenor Mouthpiece

February 2, 2010 by Steve 11 Comments

This is another classic Peter Ponzol M2 tenor mouthpiece.  I’ve played about 5-6 of these and they were all great.   This one is a .110 tip opening which feels perfect for me.   They have a brightness and kick to them that really comes out when you are on the gig.

Theo Wanne Metal Kali Tenor Mouthpiece

August 14, 2009 by Steve 1 Comment

I received this piece in another trial by Theo Wanne.  This mouthpiece is  Theo’s Kali  tenor mouthpiece which is a high baffle , large chambered piece.  I really liked this mouthpiece.  It has a bright sound but the large chamber gives it a much fatter sound than other high baffle tenor mouthpieces I have played […]

Peter Ponzol SS M2 Tenor Mouthpiece

August 14, 2009 by Steve 2 Comments

This is a Peter Ponzol M2 tenor saxophone mouthpiece. It is Stainless Steel and has a .110 tip opening.  I have owned 3 M2 pieces before and was thinking this would be just like them.   I was actually surprised at how dark this mouthpiece played.  It had tons of power and a husky, robust […]

LAW Buzzer .110 Tenor Saxophone Mouthpiece

August 14, 2009 by Steve 3 Comments

Here is another LAW tenor saxophone mouthpiece that I received from Lawrence Waldron to try.  This one is in a .110 tip with a 25mm facing length.  This mouthpiece plays great and has a nice thick hearty tone to it with a 3 sized reed.  I found this mouthpiece could take all the air I […]

“Live” Freddie Gregory Mark IV 7** Tenor Saxophone Mouthpiece

August 14, 2009 by Steve 11 Comments

This is a live clip from a gig I did a number of years ago. I play a tenor solo using the Freddie Gregory Mark IV 7** hard rubber tenor saxophone mouthpiece I had.  The mouthpiece is made of hard rubber with a medium high long baffle in it that slopes down into the chamber. […]

Saxscape NF .108 Tenor Mouthpiece

August 14, 2009 by Steve 3 Comments

I’ve been curious about these mouthpieces for awhile now.  They are made by Ken Barry in PA. His website is  www.Saxscape.com I appreciate Ken Barry because not only is he a craftsman but he is a great player also.  I find his website  very enjoyable to visit because Ken puts up real clips of his […]

Theo Wanne Amma 7* Tenor Mouthpiece

August 13, 2009 by Steve 13 Comments

This is the new AMMA mouthpiece being produced by Theo Wanne.  A friend on SOTW generously offered to let me borrow his and try it out.  When I opened the package the first thing I noticed was the quality of the mouthpiece.  The tip, rails and baffle were perfect as well as the outside of […]

Jon Van Wie STM Link 8 Tenor Mouthpiece

August 13, 2009 by Steve 12 Comments

I won this mouthpiece on ebay a few weeks ago.  The seller had it listed as a link that Phil Barone had worked on but Phil contacted him and said it wasn’t his work.  I bid on it because it looked a lot like other Jon Van Wie  links I’ve owned in the past.  It […]

LAW “Buzzer” Tenor Mouthpiece

August 13, 2009 by Steve 5 Comments

Some of the other threads on cosmetic flaws have prompted me to post this story.  A couple of weeks ago I got a phone call from a guy in England.  He saw my website with all the sax mouthpiece clips.  Anyways, his name is Lawrence  Waldron and he seems to be a pretty big name […]

RPC 115B Tenor Mouthpiece

August 13, 2009 by Steve 18 Comments

This is the legendary Ron Cohelo 115B hard rubber mouthpiece. I have read so many reviews from people loving this mouthpiece that I felt like I had to try one.  This piece is great.  It has a pretty high baffle but because of the .115 tip opening it still has a  solid core to the […]

Lamberson 7DD Tenor Mouthpiece

August 13, 2009 by Steve 4 Comments

This is the 7DD model that Fred Lamberson makes out of white acetal. It has a long high baffle like the Guardalas I have played.  This is my brightest  tenor mouthpiece at the moment.  It is very focused and penetrating, cuts right through the mix.   This is the  tenor mouthpiece I play on the […]

Guardala Gold MB II Tenor Mouthpiece

August 13, 2009 by Steve 8 Comments

I received this from WWBW about 3 weeks ago.  This is not a handmade Guardala tenor mouthpiece but one of the CNC made mouthpieces by WWBW.  Yes, I couldn’t resist.  I’ve tried Guardala mouthpieces before and they were always too bright for me.  This one isn’t.  It has a nice balance to it.  On the […]

“Live” Lamberson 7DD Tenor Mouthpiece

August 13, 2009 by Steve 5 Comments

Here’s a “live” clip of my white acetal Lamberson 7DD tenor mouthpiece. This is the same piece that I play on the “Let’s Get it On” video on my website. I’ve always said that Fred Lamberson makes amazing mouthpieces. This 7DD mouthpiece is no exception. It’s on the brighter side of the spectrum but still […]

“Live” Jon Van Wie Otto Link 8

August 13, 2009 by Steve 6 Comments

My Jon Van Wie refaced Super Tone Master Link is the tenor sax mouthpiece that I have played the most over the last 10 years. Jon Van Wie was an incredible mouthpiece refacer (sad to say that he died a number of years ago).  I had the good fortune to have him work on a […]
