The Best Mouthpiece Ever!
"I've been looking for a mouthpiece like this since I started playing baritone saxophone 30 years ago. The mouthpiece that I've been using for the last 30 years provided me with very well rounded bottom at the compromise of a very thin sound at the top of the horn. For some reason the baffle on the old mouthpiece shut the sound off when I played in the upper register and I had a constantly make embouchure adjustments in order to play. The JodyJazz DV Baritone 8 makes the bottom of the horn bigger brighter thicker and heavier. The bottom of the horn plays effortlessly and facilitates my ability to phrase and add color to the sound better than I ever have been able to do on my horn. At the middle and the upper register the sound no longer closes off and the air flows through the instrument freely giving me complete control. The altissimo range also plays effortless and has a full body sound. When backing up the singers from Puerto Rico in my Salsa Band that I run the JodyJazz DV 8 allows me to cut through the lower frequencies that come from the percussion bass and piano, as well as cutting through on the upper end with the trombones and trumpets. I also tested in the recording studio. The sound that the DV gives me in the studio is superlative to any mouthpiece I have used to record in the past. It is just the best mouthpiece I've ever used on the Baritone sax! Thank you very much Jody Espina and the JodyJazz team!!!!!!!
