*This is the first mouthpiece I reviewed back in 2006 when I started Neffmusic.com. This is pretty sad as far as an in-depth review goes. I had no idea what to write about or say about this mouthpiece. Who would have guessed that these clips below would turn into a 15+ year passion and hundreds […]
Tenor Medium Baffle Reviews
Freddie Gregory Mark IV 7** Tenor Saxophone Mouthpiece
Here’s a hard rubber Freddie Gregory Mark IV 7** tenor saxophone mouthpiece. I really miss this tenor sax mouthpiece. I sold it not too long after I bought it because I thought it was too bright. To be honest, there were quite a few gigs I had during that time that were amazing with this […]
Florida/Early Babbitt HR Link 7* Tenor Mouthpiece
This is a piece I bought about 4 years ago. I got caught up in the whole “slant” hard rubber link thing and I emailed a guy who had a slant. He had just sold it but said he had this piece that was as good or better than any slant he had ever played. […]
Drake Double Ring Ceramic Tenor Mouthpiece
This is a tenor mouthpiece by Aaron Drake at Drake Ceramic Mouthpieces. He has been generous enough to send two tenor mouthpieces for me to try. These are called “Double Ring” Jazz and a Contemporary. They are both .110 tips. These mouthpiece are very unique in that they are made of ceramic. I was a bit […]
Theo Wanne Gaia 7* Tenor Mouthpiece

I have to say that out of the Theo Wanne pieces I have played so far this is my favorite. The higher baffle Wanne mouthpieces were too bright for what […]
LAW Medium Chamber Bright (MCB) .110

It has a roll over baffle that slopes more gradually into the chamber than the LCD piece. This gives it a bit more power […]
Sugal Super Gonz I 7*
Sugal Super Gonz 7* Here is a Sugal Super Gonz I tenor mouthpiece that I bought off a friend of mine. This is from the mid 90’s and started out as a 8*. I had Brian Powell bring it down to a 7* and clean up the facing quite a bit. I played a Super […]
Saxscape Hudson Model .113
Saxscape Hudson Model Refaced by Brian Powell to .113 I received this piece from a friend who wanted me to try it out. It was made by Ken Barry at Saxscape mouthpieces. The person who owned it before me had Brian Powell reface it (I’m not sure why) It has berg like baffle in it […]
