I want a Hard rubber Jazz MP for my tenor. I'm looking for a HR that is really bright kind of like Gerald Albright or Jeff Kashiwa. Right now for jazz, I'm on a Thunderbolt Metal and it's almost bright as I want but it's hard to control. I play on La Voz soft reeds and Yanagisawa T900. I was thinking about an E. Rousseau Jazz. I'm in college so I'm broke and didn't want to spend over $80 for a MP.
Any suggestion would be helpful.

They're not hard rubber but they're in your price range:

Runyon Custom
Runyon Jazz

I just picked up a Custom with a spoiler and love it. Check out www.gigdust.com as he has some nice facing charts and mouthpiece info in a prettier format than www.runyonproducts.com.

What is the difference between the Jazz and Studio Models? I just want a size that easy to control and plays well. If I buy one, it’s probably gonna be a week of two. I have final exams starting at 2p.m. today :(

The Jazz model is like the classical models, only with a wedge baffle. The Studio Jazz has a long roll-over into a smaller "squeeze" chamber.

Ive been playing on a jumbo java t45 for about 2 weeks and as much as I find it hard to believe I love it. $98 new but they are always on ebay

Are you talking about a chamber like the one on the Rousseau metal? I compared the JDX and Studio a while ago, and my memory may be fuzzy, but the only difference seemed to be in the baffle.

You have got to try the Vandoren Jumbo Javas. I love them If you want hard rubber and still have some punch, then there the BEST. Give Weiner Music a call I know they carry all the Vandoren Mouthpieces.

Wow, four years later! JLW might have traded in that sax for a wife, rug rat and a mortgage by now. ;)
