Alto Mouthpieces
I am a dealer for Morgan Mouthpieces and Aaron Drake Mouthpieces so I usually have a good selection of those available in the shop. I have tried everything and I feel those are some of the best handmade mouthpieces on the market. I also usually have an assortment of more mainstream brands like D'Addario and Vandoren to choose from. The best way to buy a mouthpiece is to try several in person first but if you're not local and would like to have a mouthpiece shipped to you, just give me a call and I can help make a recommendation and send it out to you.
NEW Aaron Drake Vintage Resin Jazz 7 (.085") - $270
This is an absolutely killer alto piece! One of my top favorite alto pieces for sure. Very powerful but not too bright. Includes Drake ring ligature, cap, pouch, and box.
NEW Morgan Jazz New York 6 (.075") - $299
Fantastic handmade hard rubber pieces in the style of the vintage New York Meyer. This is one of my absolute favorite alto pieces! Includes new Rovner Light ligature, cap, pouch, and box.

Mint Condition JodyJazz DV 7 (.083") with New Rico H Ligature & Cap - $400
These are killer pieces with lots of power without being overly bright. They are very free-blowing and have a particularly fat low end which is very unusual for a high-baffle piece. It comes with a brand new Rico H Ligature and cap.
USED Theo Wanne Gaia 7 (.085") Hard Rubber- $375
This one is in excellent condition and blows very big and free with some edge when you push it hard. It tunes particularly well and has a nice medium-bright voice that really projects through the room. Includes Enlightened Ligature, gold and copper pressure plates, reed replacer cap, screwdriver, and box.
USED Theo Wanne NY Bros 7 (.080") Mint Condition - $255
Here is a really great NY Meyer copy from Theo. Tip opening measures .080" and blows very easily.
Morgan Jazz 6M (.075") - $200
These are killer players, one of the best alto mouthpieces out there, lots of power and focus and plenty of brightness when you want it.
Morgan Jazz 5M (.065") - $169
Morgan Classical 3C - $200
If you have been struggling to play your vintage American alto in tune for your classical playing, this is the mouthpiece you need. These play great on any horn but are really the only thing that will allow your vintage Buescher or Conn to tune properly, outside of the original mouthpieces but those are incredibly stuffy, dull and difficult for most people to play. This piece really sings and is easy to play! This is the best large chamber classical piece out there and probably one of the best classical pieces in general.
