Hello,
I’d like to get opinions on soprano mouthpiece.
Like every sop player, I want to get a luscious warm tone. I played 4 mouthpieces:
1. Claude Lakey 6: didn’t like it. Hard to play, sounds too bright.
2. Jody Jazz HR 6: very fun and easy, free blowing piece but again too bright.
3. Selmer S80 C: also very easy and free blowing ( maybe too much! ), but not enough round and warm to me.
4. Otto Link HR 6: the one I use everyday.It has the warmest and roundest tone, except in the very low register, but it can be because of the reed.
I use regular Vandoren blue 3 but I ordered a Vandoren sample display.
I’d like to get a mouthpiece that sounds like the Link but with a bit more warmth and easy and free blowing like the Selmer.
Any suggestion? I’m a beginner-intermediate player.
Thanks for your help!
