Ponzol Stainless Steel M2 Tenor Mouthpiece

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