The mouthpiece was shipped immediately after purchase, and arrived in great condition. I highly recommend Keith as a seller.

What factors in a mouthpiece would contribute toward a focused, rather than spread, tone? A small tip opening? A small chamber? The facing length?

I know a player's air stream is the biggest...

Ah, thanks for the horn info. He must have said that in one of the videos that I had trouble loading.

I just discovered a bunch of Jerry Bergonzi videos on the Rico website. Check 'em out here under the "lessons" tab.

His "no embouchure embouchure" resembles some of the Joe Allard concepts offered...

Brilliant allusion! I missed that on the first reading.

The Mouthpiece Guys refaced both Links, and they did what appears to be a beautiful job on both -- hence my confusion. In theory, the refaced STM would be no more or less reed picky than the...

Two Links, both alike in dignity,
In a fair practice room, where we lay our scene...

I play a late Florida Link refaced by the Mouthpiece Guys, have for a long time. In a recent equipment trade,...

I cast an unequivocal vote for the Selmer 404. Having played on Florida, current STM, Francois Louis, and even Winslow ligatures, I find the 404 both the easiest to deal with and the best sounding...

Did anyone attend Jerry Bergonzi's clinic at IAJE this past year? I just found this description of it online:

"Good Vibrations – Performance Practice Techniques for Jazz Sax. JerryBergonzi has...

I completely missed the chart on Roberto's site. I also didn't realize that Roberto's has soft, medium, and hard divisions at each half size.

It looks like Roberto's 3M match up with RJS 3S, which...

I am planning to order a box of Roberto's tenor reeds. Given the price, I want to make sure I choose the appropriate strength.

So how does the strength of Roberto's reeds compare with that of Rico...

Years ago one of my sax teachers recommended warming up on a Selmer S80 ("F" or so), making that sound great and vibrant, then switching to more open a Link (like a 7* or an 8). I think his reasoning...

I'll be spending a little time in Iowa City this summer. I know they have a summer jazz festival, but does anyone know of local jam sessions, artists not to miss, etc.?

What about in Cedar Rapids?...

In one of the Artist Share interviews from Potter's website he says that he plays a Link 7* with a strength 5 reed. Photographs from the same site reveal his Link to be vintage (not sure which) and...

Has anyone played a Selmer Series III neck on his/her SBA tenor? Would it throw off the intonation significantly? How about the focus?

My SBA neck is on the fritz.

Has anyone played the three tenor Tenney Links on Saxquest side-by-side? I am curious how they rank, brightest to darkest.

Logically I suppose that the metal STM would be the brightest. But I...
