  • Alto Meyer Hard Rubber BB Screws Brilhart Reproduction 3-Band Ligature Saxophone Selmer Vandoren

    $ 165

    For hard rubber alto saxophone mouthpieces like Meyer Bros, GS New York, Selmer Soloist, Vandoren Jumbo Java and all Brilharts. This ligature is a true reproduction of the Brilhart 3-Band Ligature: from the alloy of brass to the feel of the screws, it is exactly the same as the vintage Brilhart ligature. Same dimensions, same weight, same feel, same playing response. It’s like going back in time to buy one when they were first made! So for those of you who have always wanted this time-tested style of ligature, but have found them prohibitively expensive, now perhaps getting one is within reach.

  • Alto Meyer Hard Rubber Brilhart Reproduction 3-Band Ligature Saxophone Selmer Vandoren

    $ 165

    This ligature fits almost all hard rubber alto saxophone mouthpieces, like Meyer Bros, GS New York, Selmer Soloist, Vandoren Jumbo Java, all brands of Meyer copies, Ted Klum Acoustimax and New York model, all Brilharts etc. There’s a reason why the vintage Brilhart 3-Band ligatures have been singled out by the market (players) as by far the most desirable vintage ligatures. They are great ligatures. But there will never be enough vintage Brilhart ligatures to meet the high demand for this style of ligature. Thankfully, there is now a high-quality, hand made reproduction available to meet this demand. These are made by a small company in South Korea that cares about getting saxophone equipment right. These ligatures get rave reviews by the people who buy them. I don’t want to make huge claims for a ligature, but I will say that people tend to LOVE them. They’re beautiful, simple, and easy to use, and they sound great.

  • Alto Beechler Bellite Metal Brilhart Reproduction 3-Band Ligature Echo Master

    $ 165

    This ligature fits thin metal alto saxophone mouthpieces like Beechler Bellite and other very slim body metal alto mouthpieces, like Brilhart levelaire, and some modern pieces like Guardala handmade. That’s ALL that this ligature fits. This is a listing for the ligature only, not a mouthpiece. 

    For Dukoff Miami alto, please buy the ‘soprano’ ligature here, because the soprano ligature fits Miami Dukoff metal alto mouthpieces *perfectly*. The soprano ligature also fits metal Otto Link alto mouthpieces very nicely.

    Beechler Bellite 1980’s Table 7 Alto Saxophone Mouthpiece Gerald Albright MPC609

    $ 1,150

    This is one of the most desirable smooth jazz alto mouthpieces ever. A few years ago, these were almost double the asking price, as odd as that may seem. Gerald Albright, Eric Marienthal, and Dave Koz made these desirable. I sell the Echomaster ligature to fit them as well. The best ones are the early ones like this, and they were never made in large quantities in the 80’s and early 90’s. The modern ones are terrible in comparison. If you want to have that crisp, bright, projecting smooth jazz alto sound that really lives in a reverb-heavy natural habitat, this is for you. It has straight sidewalls, small chamber, long gradual rollover baffle, tip opening measures 0.092″.

    Berg Larsen Hard Rubber Tenor Saxophone Mouthpiece MPC499

    $ 275

    The markings seem to be buffed out but looks like a 120 2 or 3 chamber. Tip opening measures 0.119″. Has a huge sound and very free blowing if you have ginormous lungs and want to rip through a big band lead tenor book this might be your mouthpiece. It’s original facing, and has been played a lot, because it’s a phenomenal player.

  • Berg Larsen HR 85 3 SMS 0.083 EG reface Alto Saxophone Mouthpiece MPC553

    Straight sidewalls, small bullet chamber, no rollover on the high baffle. Beautiful reface by Erik Greiffenhagen. This is bright and loud, very modern without being too piercing. Tip opening measuring at 0.083”

    Straight sidewalls, moderate baffle by modern standards, small bullet chamber, masterfully refaced retaining the original 0.100″ tip opening by Brian Powell. This piece is moderately bright and has great projection and low resistance, but in an effortless way that makes it much easier to play than a modern high baffle piece. It’s not a paint peeler but stays warm with plenty of projection. Great piece!

  • Brilhart ARB Great Neck Original 3* (.081 modern 5) “Hard Rubber” Tenor Saxophone Mouthpiece MPC591

    $ 275

    Rare hard rubber ARB example. These are usually plastic. This is Brilhart after Arnold Brilhart sold his name as a brand and switched to ARB. Slightly curved sidewalls, medium chamber, not much baffle. High resistance but not in a bad way, moderate tone not too dark and not too bright. This would make a good classic big band mouthpiece. Tip opening measures 0.081″.

  • Brilhart Designed by Arnold Brilhart Great Neck Ebolin 4* Tenor Saxophone Mouthpiece MPC592

    $ 475

    Hard to find, early example of a Brilhart. This would be one of his first pieces, before the Ebolin name, when they just said ‘Designed by’ and had the Great Neck NY stamp on the shank. If you like Brilharts, you may want to add this to your collection. It’s a rarity in great shape. Straight sidewalls, medium tall-narrow chamber, subtle rollover baffle. This piece plays great with medium-low resistance and very flexible tone, reminiscent of a good Otto Link but a little warmer. Tip opening measures 0.086″, but plays a bit bigger.

    Brilhart designed by metal 6* Tenor Saxophone Mouthpiece F58

    $ 150

    Guardala Studio like mouthpiece for 90+% less. Haha. Straight sidewalls, medium chamber after a high stepped baffle. Tip opening measures 0.096″. Not as bright as a modern high stepped baffle, more similar to Berg Larsen in that it has good projection while maintaining a dark lush tone. The unusual beak shape takes some getting used to, but it is interesting. The thick tip and low angle make the bite plate almost parallel to the reed.

  • Brilhart Early “Designed By” Tonalin and BB ligature and cap – fantastic! Use with alto? MPC612

    $ 1,350

    So of the two parts of this sale, the ligature is actually worth more than the mouthpiece, and if they don’t sell together quickly, I’ll split them up. The ligature that comes with the streamline tenor is the desirable version that fits hard rubber ALTO mouthpieces (The streamline idea is that your tenor mouthpiece is the size of a normal alto mouthpiece.) So you get a ligature and cap that typically sells for the entire asking price not including the tenor mouthpiece that is also rare, collectible, and interesting in its own right. The mouthpiece is a rare, early Brilhart ‘Designed By’ Tonalin tenor mouthpiece with original facing measuring .083, or about a 5* tip. It is in excellent condition and plays well with a harder reed with a warm, complex tone. Lots of great players played mouthpieces like this, including Gene Ammons and Tex Benake. I love the Tonalin and may eventually do a GS Mouthpieces copy of my favorite one.

    Brilhart Hard Rubber 7* Tenor Saxophone Mouthpiece EG Reface Excellent MPC560

    $ 750

    This Hard Rubber Brilhart is a lovely (and highly-coveted) vintage jazz mouthpiece that has a lot more in common with a Link Slant signature Tone Edge or Dukoff Supersonic than with other Brilharts. One of the best vintage tenor mouthpieces ever, bar none. This particular one comes from a small collection of the best vintage Brilharts amassed by a friend of Arnold Brilhart who has now retired from playing tenor. It has scooped sidewalls and large round chamber, rollover baffle, and the tip has just been opened to 0.105″ by Erik Greiffenhagen. The facing is perfect, and responds effortlessly in all registers, with a balanced, comfortable feel. Erik is widely-recognized as one of the best mouthpiece refacers around today. He uses the best authentic vintage curves for his facings, so this piece is just like it would have been if it were originally opened to a 7*. (All mouthpieces started at 0.0″ tip.) This is truly ‘one of the good ones’ and it’s priced very reasonably for all that.

    Beautiful almost new example of a rare Streamline Brilhart Ebolin alto mouthpiece. Stamped 3*, it measures like a Meyer 5 tip at .074″ on the original facing. This is often the case with Brilharts, where you only know the tip by measuring.

    This mouthpiece plays great with a beautiful warmth and fullness that also does not lack projection. Brilharts like this are among my favorite vintage alto mouthpieces (along with Meyer and MC Gregory).

    If you happen to want the rare and collectible original Brilhart BB screws streamline alto ligature and cap, I have one in my collection that fits this mouthpiece that I would be open to selling.

    $ 375

    Here’s a beautiful example of an original facing Brilhart Tonalin alto saxophone mouthpiece in excellent condition. The tonalin is warm and full sounding, with less buzz than a Meyer and more of a classic big band tone. It features straight sidewalls, narrow-tall chamber, very slight rollover baffle. Tip opening measures 0.068″, so about the same as a Meyer 4 tip. It could easily be opened to a 5+ if you so choose. This piece has nice moderate resistance and is less bright than some other Brilharts.

Tip opening measures 0.106″.

Great classic big band tone. Moderate projection and medium resistance. It works well, but watch out for the major crack in the shank. Should be clamped before extensive use.

  • Brilhart Vintage Alto Ligature and Cap for Hard Rubber Alto Mouthpieces: Selmer, Meyer etc. MPC 610

    I guess Kenny Garrett has made these popular more than anyone else. These vintage Brilhart 3 band alto saxophone ligatures are by far the most desirable vintage ligatures. This one is in very good condition and also comes with its original Brilhart mouthpiece cap as well. The EchoMaster ligatures offer you the same design brand new for a fraction of the cost, but if you want the vintage original, this is it.

It has almost all of its original silver plate intact, as well as the gold in the bell. The pads are in good condition, from an overhaul with not too much play time on it.  It just got a nice tune up on the already-newish pads, and it plays great! If you love a baritone to have a full, warm voice and great intonation, this is the horn for you. Plus it has the rarity and beauty to make it very special. It’s priced SUPER low for what a quality baritone it is, and there is most certainly only one available!

    Buescher True Tone Alto Saxophone 200008 Original Silver Plate Good Condition

    The Buescher True Tone alto saxophones are excellent instruments for a wide range of playing. They have great intonation, and a beautiful, warm, round tone that works great for classical alto or concert band, or any setting where you want to have a big, beautiful, ‘sweet’ alto saxophone sound. This example comes from a collector who sold it to me together with a few other choice True Tones. It has old pads, so it needs an overhaul. As such, I have it priced really low for what you get. This horn should be amazingly beautiful when polished up and repadded, and it will be a reliably great player for many many more years to come. I love the rose gold wash inside the bell, and the original silver plate is also in quite good condition. This is a great serial range for a true tone. Many of my favorite playing Bueschers have been around 180-220k serial.

    Buffet Crampon G7* Clarinet Mouthpiece MPC531

    $ 50

    This is a nice old hard rubber clarinet mouthpiece measuring .050″ (1.27 mm). From the stamping of the facing on the table, I’m thinking this was made by Woodwind Company of NY for Buffet, as a jazz-leaning clarinet piece. That’s just a guess. I’m not an expert on clarinet mouthpieces. Let me know if you know more about it. It plays well with a warm, rich tone and plenty of power.

  • Buffet S1 Alto Saxophone Amazing Condition Great Player

    $ 2,350

    The Buffet S1 Alto saxophone is the best saxophone that Buffet ever produced. It has all of the big, operatic voice of a Super Dynaction, paired with some brilliant keywork improvements. Plus, it has that combination of high build quality and rarity that makes it appeal to me both as a player and as a lover of vintage saxophones. The low C/Eb design is just so pleasant to use. It’s light, fast, and ergonomic. No more hopping your pinky over rollers. Just rock it side to side! Why don’t modern saxes copy this? The left hand spatula keys have similarly smart rocking designs that make the adjacent keys stay accessible when you press any of the pinky keys down. The S1 has excellent intonation, beautiful engraving, and a pleasant, warm, medium tone between bright and dark. If you want a great professional alto that is in the neighborhood of a Selmer Mark VI, that is equally well built, but costs less, and has a bit wider, fatter sound, especially in the palm keys, then the S1 is the horn for you. There’s nothing else that does all of that stuff as well. The pads on this alto are original, so either plan on replacing them several at a time over the next few years, or just plan on a repad soon. It’s fun to play even on original pads though. And it’s priced LOW! Original case is gorgeous too.

    Buffet Super Dynaction alto saxophone with original lacquer. This alto came from a collector who favored Buffet saxophones, and it is priced to sell, in good condition. It has had some dings removed, and the pads are old, but you’ll get an excellent pro alto for a bargain price if you get this and get it overhauled. It has the ‘sparkle’ lacquer that the earlier serial Buffet Super Dynaction saxophones have. The earlier ones like this also play darker, and look great too. The original case comes with it. They’re one of the few saxophones along with the Mark VI and the Couf Superba 1 that have a complex, interesting, vintage tone, but keywork that feels more or less modern under the fingers. Intonation is also typically quite good, as you might expect from Buffet Crampon Paris.

    Conn 10M Tenor Original Silver Plate Carlo Cennamo Overhaul Exceptional 311896

    Just back from a full mechanical overhaul by Carlo Cennamo, this gorgeous original silver plated Conn 10M tenor is playing as well as it possibly can, and will continue to do so with minimal maintenance for the foreseeable future. It feels like a brand new saxophone under the fingers. The tone is huge, medium spread, warm, and chocolatey. With a vintage Dukoff Hollywood or Link STM Double Ring (or modern piece with similar baffle and chamber) you can get a tone that will make every other player green with jealousy. Even random bystanders will look up and think ‘man, I love the saxophone!’

    It’s an understatement, but I think you’ll be pleased! It’s hard to communicate how satisfying it is to buy a horn that is truly playing at its full potential. Here’s something I often think about as it relates to buying a musical instrument like this, and it’s a philosophy that I live by. Attributed to Benjamin Franklin, by the way, but as with everything on the internet, who knows if that’s true? I’m putting this horn in a nice BAM Softpack tenor case, which is the same case I use for my personal horns that have left hand bell keys. It protects the tenor perfectly, and will be satisfying to own and use.

  • Conn 10M Transitional Tenor 268908 Ugly Needs Restoration Aubra Graves

    $ 1,450

    From the estate of Aubra Graves, whose lovely playing, into his 90’s inspired thousands of players around the world, this is a quite worn 10M tenor that needs an extensive overhaul but that promises to be worth the effort. Aubra bought this horn freshly overhauled from Wichita Band, and played it on that fresh overhaul for many years. Now it’s dirty and it has some poorly done homemade mods that will need to be fixed. Any decent saxophone repairman who has made or repaired a key will be able to handle this. I got Aubra’s other 10M overhauled, and it was a big job – cost me around $2350 – though that one was rougher than this.

    This is basically just an early 10M, rather than a transitional, but people still tend to label them transitional at this serial. If you do your own repairs, this would be a good way to find a fixer upper that will very likely be an excellent player when it is all cleaned up and playing its best.

     

  • Conn 26M VIII Connqueror Alto Original Lacquer Excellent! 292445

    $ 3,550

    This is a beautiful example of a rare Conn Connqueror 26M Alto saxophone with original lacquer and VIII stamp. The Connqueror is the most mechanically sophisticated saxophone that Conn ever made. It is a pre-war 6M body tube and neck, with all new keywork design, extra engraving, and solid silver on all the key touches that are not pearl. The ‘permadjust’ system is the big development on the Connqueror altos. You can read about that on Matt Stohrer’s website, or watch his repairman’s overview of the 26M on Youtube. This one has its bits and bobs intact, and is in very good condition. It just got overhauled before I bought it, so the pads are all new!  Cosmetically, this horn is just great, with only some minor lacquer wear. It has to be one of the nicest 26M Connqueror altos out there. Definitely the nicest one for sale currently, and priced very reasonably. I really like this one.

  • Conn 30M Tenor Saxophone Good Condition Original Lacquer 300198

    $ 6,750

    This is a rare and deluxe Conn 30M Connqueror tenor saxophone from 1941, which is one of the best years for Conn saxophones. This tenor has original lacquer and all the crazy extra features that set the ‘Connqueror’ saxophones apart. They’re some of the coolest of all vintage saxophones– everything you touch on the keys is either thick solid silver inlay or mother of pearl. The engraving is deluxe – more than double what is on a 10M, and the keywork is entirely redesigned. The cool thing about the Conn 30M keywork is the ‘permadjust’ mechanism. The big idea here is that once you get the horn correctly setup, all the adjustments can be locked in using a set of disks attached to very fine adjustment screws, which also are locked in place using locking screws. Then the horn’s setup is permanently locked in – no corks or felts to compress, and minimal maintenance needed. Instead of having to install, sand, remove, re-sand, reinstall, and replace corks, your repair shop just needs to turn the right screw a tiny bit in order to setup the horn. Then, if you play the horn till the pads are worn out, you can still just swap out pads without needing to completely overhaul the saxophone for a very long time.

    Tonally, the 30M is almost exactly like a 10M. All the geometry of the bore / neck / tone holes is the same as far as anyone can tell. The left hand pinky table / spatula keys if you’re too cool to say ‘pinky’, is angled quite differently on the 30M compared to the 10M. It’s ‘flatter’ and wider, with more rounded edges. Both designs are easy to play, and it isn’t hard to switch between them. There are no other key feel differences between 10M and 30M.

    This particular 30M has had some dents removed from the bow area, and maybe a small ding removed from the side of the neck. Besides that, it has nearly all of its original lacquer and hasn’t been played that much since new. The pads are new, but it was repadded before I got it, and could use some additional dialing in of the permadjust mechanism. I’ll get that done eventually, but in the meantime, I just priced it low for an original lacquer 30M (they usually sell about $1500 higher than this), so that you can get whatever you want done yourself and still come out ahead.

  • Conn 6M Alto Original Silver Plate 250314 Big Sound

    $ 2,850

    One of the very earliest 6M’s and my favorite vintage as well. Beautiful original silver plate, recent overhaul done by another dealer, who shall remain nameless, but needs a thorough re-setup. The overzealous repairman decided to ‘refresh’ the solder on many of the posts. So there are many posts resoldered. It looks fine, since the horn is silver anyway. Doesn’t seem to be due to damage, just probably one post popped off during the overhaul from the solder being old, and the repairman decided to resolder lots of them as a preventative. I’m reducing the price by $800 to give you room to spend as much as you want on a setup, or even to get it overhauled again.

  • Conn 6M Alto Saxophone Gorgeous Original Lacquer 320627

    $ 1,750

    This Conn 6M Alto is in excellent original condition with original lacquer and original pads. It is almost as clean as it could possibly be. It will need a repad as soon as you get it, because it only makes saxophone noises now, but has pads from 1947 or so, which are ready to be replaced. No wear anywhere. No real damage, and no problems that I can see. If you want a great looking, super clean Conn 6M, that’s what this is. Original case also in good condition.

    BEAUTIFUL example of an original lacquer ‘Pre-war’ Conn 6M VIII Alto saxophone in extremely fine original condition with original pads. It’s about as clean an example as you are ever likely to find.

    These altos remain an absolute bargain. They’re among the best playing alto saxophones ever made, with a bigger, wider, more powerful tone than almost anything out there. And yet the keywork is very fast and comfortable, and the intonation is excellent. It’s the perfect lead alto horn. It’s also made in USA at the height of US manufacturing, and has a build quality that has hardly been matched since. This is the desirable version with the VIII stamped neck, which tends to sell for more than the later versions without the stamp. They’re all great, so if you’re on a budget, check out the beautiful 320k post war example that is also for sale. This is original pads, so plan to get it repadded.

    $ 4,950

    This is a rare and beautiful example of a Conn New Wonder II SopraNINO Saxophone in original silver plate. It has a recent overhaul done at Saxquest, and it’s ready to play, right out of the case. They used black kangaroo leather pads and noyek/hollywood waffle style resonators. Black felts complete the look.

    The great thing about Conn sopranos and sopraninos is that they are warmer, darker, and rounder tonally than what you might think of as a typical sopranino or soprano tone. More like an alto and less like an oboe than modern instruments tend to sound, if that makes any sense. These horns tune well with the right mouthpiece. This one doesn’t come with an original Conn piece, but we can discuss options if you don’t have one already.

    It would be hard to find a Conn sopranino in better condition than this. It’s the nicest one I’ve had in years. They’re hard to find in any condition, but original silver and no evidence of past repairs like this is very special.

    $ 950

    This late Conn New Wonder II alto sax is in very good original condition, and just needs a quality overhaul to be an excellent player. It’s original silver plate, and it will shine up and look amazing with a cleaning and polishing job put into it. These late New Wonder II’s start to be called transitional when they get their first 6M-anticipating feature: the raised side E key touch. Besides that, this is pretty much a New Wonder II, though Conn also starts to experiment with the neck around this serial, to improve intonation and give slightly more focus to the sound (still very wide and spread). When overhauled nicely, these altos are unmatched for the amount that they feel alive in your hands. They vibrate and respond so amazingly well. I never want to put the horn down!

    $ 4,000

    You never see burnished Conn sopranos with special portrait engraving. This one has a train scene, which I find extremely delightful. This beautiful gold-plated soprano saxophone was also recently overhauled and plays well on the fresh pads. There’s no significant past damage. Original gold plate.

    The tone is warm, spread, and pleasant to listen to. Compared to modern sopranos, it almost sounds like a different instrument. It’s hard to capture on the recording below, but listen with good headphones and you’ll get a rough idea. It’s better in person!!

    I’ve only seen one other portrait soprano like this, and it had an owl on it and sold in 1 day.

    Conn Panamerican (New Wonder 1) Bass Saxophone Silver Plate Recent Overhaul

    $ 6,950

    This is a fantastic example of a Conn bass saxophone with original silver plate in very good shape. It was restored by Mark Aaronson and then put away without being played much at all. The neck is replated, I think, but the rest looks original. It has the features of a late Conn New Wonder 1, like around 120-140k (wild guess) bass. The way Panamerican works is that when Conn starts making a new model under its own name, the Panamerican is made with the previous model’s tooling. So this is basically a Conn bass with NW1 design, made while Conn was making the NWII under its own name. You’d be hard-pressed to find a nicer bass for a better price. It also comes with a fancy Gard gig bag that makes this bass effortless to wheel around. Only one available!!

    $ 5,500

    Unlacquered 1930 Conn transitional tenor which has had modern keywork painstakingly fit to the old body tube. This is my favorite vintage of Conn for tone. The keywork was done by a repair shop in Canada, and pads were put in there, but it’s getting the overhaul finished by Aaron Barnard in Iowa now, who is probably the person who has done the most Conn keywork conversions in the USA, and is great at them. He’s spending as much time as necessary to finish the overhaul and fine tune everything so that the setup feels excellent. That’s included in the price, which is nuts, because I’ve seen modern keywork Conns selling for two to three times this much in recent years. If you’ve ever wanted a Conn tone without sacrificing key feel to play the 30’s keywork, this is one of those rare chances to do it. The horn is also gorgeous. I like that they picked a really clean, beautiful example to use as the shell for the overhual.

    Dukoff Hollywood Metal Tenor Saxophone Mouthpiece 7* Refaced from 5* Great! MPC610

    $ 1,450

    This is a beautiful vintage Dukoff Hollywood from my personal collection. It’s fat and powerful, but on the darker side, with a mild rollover baffle and medium-large chamber. This is the one piece version with higher floor but less rollover baffle. It plays great, with more projection than average since it was opened up. This was originally a 5* and was opened to a 7*, measuring .105″. I’m not sure who did the work, as it is unsigned, but from how clean and tidy it is, I’m guessing either Theo or maybe Jon Van Wie, both of whom didn’t always sign their pieces back in the day. That tip and baffle work is top-notch. This is a world-class tenor piece that should make someone very happy.

If you want a bright, cutting, smooth jazz/commercial alto sound, this will do the trick. I’m trying to make it through the description without mentioning a certain player. Looks like I succeeded. Straight sidewalls, small-medium chamber, and high stepped baffle, tip opening measures 0.076″. The super power chamber is truth in advertising. Awesome projection, low resistance, bright tone.

A nice flexible piece for R&B or smooth playing. Tip opening measures 0.067″.

Those ligature scratches could be buffed off if you want. This is a very free-blowing piece with great projection. It is bright, but not paint peeling bright like the more common D7 chamber. I would consider this if you like your Link STM but want something that cuts through an amplified mix a little easier. Tip opening measures a comfortable 0.103″.

  • EchoMaster Baritone Ligature LARGE For Selmer, Vandoren, Yanagisawa, Gale and Similar Mouthpieces

    $ 165

    EchoMaster Baritone Saxophone Ligature for larger bodied baritone saxophone mouthpieces. This is what Brilhart might have made if they had ever made their incredibly popular BB screws ligature for baritone saxophone, instead of just for alto and tenor. Thanks to EchoMaster, now you can play one of these on your baritone mouthpieces too! There are two sizes that fit baritone mouthpieces, so check the photos. I tried this on lots of baritone mouthpieces to see what kinds of them it fits, and I took lots of photos showing fit. Check the slim body baritone ligature listing as well, to see if your mouthpiece falls into that category instead, and email me at [email protected] if you are not sure. This ligature is stamped BT on the side, and it fits larger body mouthpieces. However, it does not fit really large vintage baritone mouthpieces from the 1920’s like the old Conn Eagle, or vintage Lelandais, Martin, Buescher etc. If you have a vintage hard rubber Otto Link, here are a few notes on fit. The very oldest Otto Link Slant Tone Edge like this has a huge body almost like a bass sax mouthpiece, and will not fit this ligature. The Slant immediately after, like this, will fit this ligature. And the modern Tone Edge also fits this ligature, unless it is really slim like a Meyer, in which case you need the Slim body baritone ligature instead.

  • EchoMaster Baritone Ligature Slim, Mouthpieces For Berg Larsen, RPC, Meyer and Similar Hard Rubber

    $ 165

    EchoMaster Brilhart style ligatures for BARITONE Saxophone now available! If you’re here, you probably know about these ligatures already, but basically, these are an extremely good reproduction of the most desirable vintage ligature that was made by Brilhart in the 50’s and 60’s. This is a special new product sized for baritone saxophone mouthpieces, which Brilhart never made.

    I’ve been holding off listing these for a while, because I wanted to figure out which ligature fits which types of mouthpieces. Bari mouthpieces have a lot more variation in diameter than alto or tenor mouthpieces do. The LARGE (BT-stamped) ligature, listed separately at this link, fits Selmer (S80 and Soloist), Otto Link Tone Edge, Gale / MC Gregory, Vandoren, Yanagisawa hard rubber, Rousseau classical and similar.

    The SLIM size ligature listed in this listing (T-stamped) fits RPC, Berg Larsen Hard Rubber, Rousseau Jazz, Rico Metallite, Meyer, and other slim baritone saxophone mouthpieces. It also fits most hard rubber tenor saxophone mouthpieces, which could be handy for some people.Soon, I will add a listing for metal Otto Link baritone mouthpieces soon, but this is the ligature that fits metal link bari pieces, and a lot of other similar bari pieces, if you’re curious.

    GS Mark II Tenor Saxophone Mouthpiece Freddie Gregory Super Deluxe Mark II Copy

    *Demo videos and detailed info below with the GS Mark II on a Selmer Mark VI, Conn 30M, and King Super 20. 

    The GS Mark II tenor saxophone mouthpiece is an extremely precise copy of my favorite Freddie Gregory Super Deluxe Mark II tenor mouthpiece.

    What is this?

    Many players may not know much about Freddie Gregory’s Super Deluxe mouthpieces. That’s not a big surprise, as Freddie did not make that many of them, and the ones he did make are mostly still in the hands of their original owners. The few that have come up for sale over the last 5 years that I’ve seen have been priced way out of the reach of most players– typically $2400-$4000– for a mouthpiece! Which is nuts, but those who know these mouthpieces REALLY seem to be willing to pay to get one. And sadly, since Freddie died nine years ago, no more of these are available.

    The Super Deluxe model was entirely designed and made by Freddie. It was sold in four variations on the same design: Mark I, Mark II, Mark III, and Mark IV. They all have a good amount of projection, but the Mark I is darkest and the Mark IV is brightest.

    The Mark II is bright and projecting but not too bright, and it seems to be one of the most popular ones of these. The chamber is medium rather than large, which adds to the projection. The shank is long, so you can pull out on vintage horns. The Mark II sounds great on Selmers and on modern tenors like Yamaha and P Mauriat. It gives them a lot of extra character and complexity.

    The Mark II is nothing like an Otto Link, so if you’re wanting a Link-on-steriods or whatever, checkout the upcoming GS SUPERSONIC, which does just that sort of thing. The Mark II is a different beast, all its own thing.

    And for only $199 including hand facing, I hope that lots of players can enjoy this amazing and rare mouthpiece! It’s hard to beat.

  • GS NEW YORK Alto

    GS NEW YORK Alto Saxophone Mouthpiece

    $ 199

    GS NEW YORK Alto Saxophone Mouthpiece Meyer Bros NY Replica

    See the long description below for all the details.

    A great New York Meyer alto mouthpiece just sparkles. The response is clean, warm, and effortlessly free blowing, but centered and with an elusive extra magic to it – even compared to any other version of Meyer.

    The GS NEW YORK is an extremely precise copy of what I think is the best Meyer Bros NY I’ve played. I’ve been collecting NY Meyer alto pieces since I started GetASax, and I just LOVE this particular one.

    I loved it so much, that I spent about a year figuring out how to make an extremely precise copy of it that played with the same magic in each tip opening.

    The GS New York delivers on that goal! People just love to play this mouthpiece. The reviews and emails I receive have been so encouraging to keep this going long-term.

    How does it play? It’s slightly brighter than some NY Meyers, and a little warmer than a NYUSA. Compared to a typical modern Meyer the GS NY will be much more free blowing, less resistant, and will have better projection and sparkle. You can get a Cannonball / Phil Woods vibe going with less effort than on a typical modern Meyer for sure.

    You won’t pick a bad tip opening. They’re all great. People buy the 5 (.072″) , 6 (.076″), and 7 (.080″) tips about equally, I would say.

    Each GS New York is carefully hand faced, including flattening the table, and measuring the facing curve at ten points plus the tip, so you can be sure that the one you get will be just as good as the one that I play personally. If i make a mistake in facing, that mouthpiece does not go out the door.

    I’ve been about a week behind on hand facing lately, because of high demand. But I’ll ship your mouthpiece quickly to make up for that. At $199 including complete hand facing, for a really good copy of a really good NY Meyer, it’s pretty hard to beat.

    GS SLANT Otto Link Florida Slant Signature Tone Edge Replica Tenor Saxophone Mouthpiece

    **Update: Due to strong demand, I’m about a week behind on hand facing these mouthpieces for sale. However, regardless of which shipping option you pick, I’ll upgrade you to express 2 day shipping – or FedEx International Priority shipping if you’re overseas. So even though it’ll take me a week to make your mouthpiece, you’ll still receive it surprisingly quickly, especially internationally.

    GS SLANT is an extremely precise copy of my BEST vintage Otto Link Slant Tenor mouthpiece. More precisely, it’s a copy of an original facing 7* Florida Slant Signature Otto Link Tone Edge tenor mouthpiece in perfect original condition.

    This is the version of the ‘Slant’ that nearly everybody wants. It’s the most iconic and desirable hard rubber tenor mouthpiece ever made. When I hear people describing their ideal tenor tone online, it’s most frequently a description of what a good vintage Otto Link Slant sounds like: Dark and powerful, with a good amount of focus and projection. Brightens up and projects when pushed, but never thins out. Super even across all registers. Tunes great on almost any saxophone vintage or modern. That’s what the GS SLANT gives you, for only 15% the cost of an original vintage Otto Link Slant Tone Edge tenor saxophone mouthpiece.

    Compared to the GS RESO, the GS SLANT is a little brighter and punchier (but not bright), and more focused (though still warm and full). It has an instantly recognizable 50’s-60’s jazz tenor tone. We’ll post hi-fi sound samples of the GS SLANT on a variety of brands of saxophone very soon! See below for the GS SLANT vs Vintage Slant A/B video.

    If you’re a pro looking for the best do-it-all jazz tenor mouthpiece for an affordable price, I think you’d be hard pressed to beat the GS SLANT. It really captures the magic of the original mouthpiece, and that is saying a lot. It’s the only Slant copy I’ve seen that exactly copies a vintage Slant. Even upgrading to a vintage Link Slant at 8x the price wouldn’t actually sound better! And if you’re an amateur or younger player looking for your first good mouthpiece, this gives you the chance to jump right to an excellent mouthpiece that is completely hand faced, without messing with a bunch of machine faced intermediate mouthpieces.

    To read all about GetASax.com’s very own mouthpiece project, visit: GS Mouthpieces (main page) The big idea here is to let you experience the magic of the best mouthpieces I have ever played, for a price that makes them widely accessible for the first time.

  • Guardala Handmade Traditional Bebop Alto Saxophone Mouthpiece 7 .080 MPC1078

    $ 1,350

    Handmade Guardala Traditional Bebop alto mouthpiece with original 7 facing measuring .080″. These are wonderful alto pieces. It’s metal, but the baffle and chamber design makes it play warmly with only a pleasant amount of projection, not paint peeling by any means. It’s inspired by the Meyer Bros NY design, but again, with a little more pop. The workmanship is excellent. This particular piece plays a little warmer than a typical Traditional Bebop (which is why I’ve owned it for almost 10 years without being willing to offer it for sale) as it has had a little bit of material removed from the baffle about 5-10mm inside the tip rail mostly in the center, as you can see if you look closely. It’s a fantastic piece, and one that you never need to upgrade, and that will likely keep increasing in value while you own it! Only one available!
