Tenor 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 Jerry Bergonzi EB 7* (.105") - $345
This model has been developed through a close collaboration between Aaron Drake and Jerry Bergonzi. It has taken over two years to refine the various design elements incorporated in this model. The fundamental design is based on Jerry's personal Early Babbit "EB". The classic "crescent" shaped baffle transitions to a recalibrated floor contour and ultimately a round large chamber. The tip and side rails are finished to the exact specifications that Jerry prefers - this slightly wider contour helps to generate a thickness and stability in the sound and attack."
NEW Aaron Drake "VR Jazz" Tenor 7 (.105") - $270
Featuring a hand finished rollover baffle and a larger chamber, this model has exceptional versatility and outstanding projection capacity. The side walls are beautifully undercut to help create a warmth and incredible presence to the tone. The acoustic design is reminiscent of the great vintage mouthpieces of the 1960’s.

Phil-Tone Sapphire 7* (.105") - $300
Phil is making some of the best-playing mouthpieces available today, from high quality hard rubber with extensive hand-crafting by Phil himself.
Phil's description of the Sapphire:
"This piece is inspired by the Blue Note Era of the 1960’s. It replaces my previous reworked links. Its design is drawn from the Late Florida Slants and the Early Babbitt pieces. Its floor is higher than a modern Link and its projection and color is greater. It can blow dark and smokey with a rich core and has the power to project and cut through in more straight ahead situations. The Sapphire is never tubby and it is very even through the range of the instrument. With its rich and colorful palate the Phil-Tone Sapphire fills a space like no other."
