Uptown Live
I ordered the Uptown Live as soon as it came out as I wasn't sure which way to go (Downtown vs.Uptown), I wanted a HR mouthpiece with some edge yet greater ease of playing especially in the low register. In recent years I have moved away from metal (I've played and probably own just about every mouthpiece under the sun and that includes customized/reworked pieces by many great people). I really am impressed with this mouthpiece. I love the way it plays, the sound, and the projection. It doesn't lose anything to a metal piece. I have a 8* and use a FL ligature, primarily with a 3 handfinished fibracell (for conveniece and consistency), but it kills with Alexander Superials.
This mouthpiece plays like my best Otto Links (the exterior has that same great shape), but the low register is much easier and the altissimo far exceeds most HR pieces I have played, this could possible be attributed to a rather complex hand finished baffle. This mouthpiece works great on my JK SX90, but I am considering asking Ken to make me a slightly darker piece for my MKVI and Superbalanced Action.
As you read these forums you'll notice people either; totally love what they have, or are in constant search of the "Holy Grail". Obviously I am one of the latter, and my views, opinions, and observations are subjective, and strictly mine. That being said I think Ken (Saxcape) puts out a great product, as I don't know who custom makes more models of tenor sax mouthpieces in so many various sizes. Your thread doesn't say what you are playing now, I would suggest you call Ken.
