  1. Reeds
    Having gotten back into sax a couple years ago, this is one thing I can't really figure out. I'm not interested in being the macho-est sax player playing on the hardest reed. I'm more curious about what it is that signals to you all that you need to move up (or down) in strength. Is it tone...
  2. Baritone mpc
    I recently acquired a couple of STM bari pieces. One of them is clearly a modern version (the one on the left in the photos) but I am not sure about the one on the right, it's probably made in the 80s but I would appreciate if any mouthpiece historian could enlighten me. Thanks! The tip...
  3. Soprano, Bass and Misc. mpc
    It’s funny how these two pieces difference so much more so on the soprano then say on Tenor or maybe even alto although I’m really not familiar with these pieces and out of so I can’t say for certain. In fact all of this is speculation so let me just say that now none of this I’m really not...

  6. Alto mpc
    Hi all, This is my first post. I live in Australia and I play the alto. I've been playing for 30 years (classical training, soul/rock bands, now soulful jazz/fusion). I'm having a hard time finding a mouthpiece that suits me. I used to play a Link STM 8 for years and I loved it but I sold it...
  7. Mouthpiece Maintenance, Modification & Refacing
    should it be done ? i don't know anything about refacing, i have an otto link stm 6*
  8. Alto mpc
    I've read various articles in regards to this, but i'm really troubled on a 2nd mouthpiece choice i currently use an AL3 with a rico h, legere SS 2.5. which i've always loved and is very easy to use. I may return the otto link stm 6* i bought in order to demo, but it's very difficult to try out...
