<\/a><\/p>\nIshimori Woodstone Hard Rubber Tenor Saxophone Mouthpiece<\/strong><\/p>\n Over the past few months, I have heard of Ishimori Woodstone mouthpieces from a number of players on the web. They were all raving about how good these mouthpieces were which really peaked my curiosity. I had a problem though, when I searched around for these mouthpieces I couldn’t find them anywhere except for the Ishimori site in Japan and the whole site was in Japanese. (I am not fluent in Japanese) I gave up after that but then a month later I heard another player raving about them again. This time I decided to try contacting Ishimori directly through their website. I sent them an email asking about their mouthpieces and a few days later received a courteous response from Norikiyo Yaguchi who handles Overseas transactions for Mr. Ishimori. He was nice enough to send me 5 mouthpieces to review- 2 alto, 2 tenor and one soprano mouthpiece.<\/p>\n This tenor sax mouthpiece is beautiful.\u00a0 It has a perfect looking facing curve and tip.\u00a0 The baffle is medium low and slopes down to a medium to large\u00a0 sized chamber.\u00a0 The shape of the baffle is similar to the classic Otto Link Slant Signature mouthpieces that play so great. The baffle slides smoothly and evenly down into the chamber and there’s not an edge or blemish anywhere.\u00a0 Absolutely perfect looking.<\/p>\n
