Made
in the heyday of the big bands, fashioned by the hands of skilled
craftsmen, and blown hard during all-night cooking sessions...vintage
mouthpieces offer something to just about every level of player. The
best of the hard rubber, bell metal, and other specialty materials
respond in ways made famous by artists from Coleman Hawkins to Joshua
Redman, and are capable of making beautiful music in any kind of style.
- All
mouthpieces come in, at least, very good, playable condition, have been
washed and sterilized, and are ready to play.
- All metal mouthpieces were originally gold-plated, unless otherwise noted.
