i am wondering if anyone in the NJ area has a decent amount of mouthpieces and are willing to help out a young musician. i am mainly focused on alto pieces. i am willing to pay you just to let me come by and play some of your mouthpieces in your collection. every sax player knows that finding a nice mouthpiece for yourself could be a long and expensive process. i figured this might help me save some time and money. message me if your willing. god bless you all!:mrgreen:

Grab your horn buy a train ticket to NYC and visit Sam Ash, Roberto's, Rod Baltimore, etc..

Thank you! They have trial pieces there? Do you have to pay? Is it only modern pieces? Any more info on this will help I'll def do it.

check out mojo....he's in Jersey and a swell guy!!!!! if you find something almost perfect he CAN make it perfect!

the problem with new pieces is that they may STILL need a reface.... roberto's has new and vintage pieces in NYC but expect to PAY....

I'm in southern NJ, away from most of the NJ population. I have a bunch of stuff you can try. In addition to the stuff on my site, I have several lower cost basic mouthpieces with stock facings on them.

Locate & befriend a local saxophone collector.
ALL of the vintage mouthpieces I own, I found "included" with horns I had picked up, in thrifts stores & ebay, etc.
In two cases I remember, I bought the horn just for the mouthpiece, that nobody seemed to be noticing, as I tried to keep a calm poker-face. WEW!.
