Today we’re doing play tests of some baritone sax mouthpieces! They are as follows
Theo wanne Durga 3. 8 tip
Vintage NY fat body Meyer. 5 tip
Selmer soloist. C* tip
T Voitcu custom. 0.120 tip
Yamaha 5c with a baffle. 6 tip
Vintage Woodwind Co. B5 tip
It’s been a little bit since I’ve pulled out my baritone so do mind the chops or lack thereof.
Let me know what else y’all would like to see in the comments!

I have the same Selmer mouthpiece for my baritone. Mine is an F. I believe Selmer mouthpieces from that time period are now called either Scroll Shank or Soloist “style”. Back then I think it was just called a Selmer mouthpiece (and the facing). It’s the only mouthpiece I own, so I use it for everything although it doesn’t have “chainsaw mode”. I’m really close to getting a Durga 5 (7*).

I, too, have an old Buffet Super/Dynaction bari -- though not to low A! Do you encounter tuning issues with any mouthpieces on the horn? I find that if I use a more "modern" (narrower-chamber) mouthpiece, I have tuning problems all across the horn, so I use an old Link instead -- but I'm missing out on a little bit of the bite that I want...

Yes a little bit, I mainly use a Theo wanne Durga on that buffet, but I adjust by ear. Those old links are good. Just get em refaced and they have plenty of bark. I’ve also got a woodwind co b6 that sounds amazing on my Buffet and would probably sound even better on a low Bb

Nice comparison video on a diverse group of pieces. What other baritone saxes do you own and which pieces are your favorites on those horns?

@Saxman_sam Год назад

I own a mark Vi from 1964. That’s a low Bb horn, the buffet you saw in the video, a Noblet baritone to low A (look up Cecil Payne) and a conn 12m. Low Bb

Good afternoon, I'm from Brazil, hi, I'm starting to play the baritone now, I have a much inferior sax from the custon brand and the mouthpiece is its original well closed, I still don't have the financial conditions to buy another mouthpiece, could you give me tips for play better to have a beautiful with even with my inferior equipment?

Honestly. Try and find some local sellers. It’s crazy what some knowledge and a 3D printer can do for you. Also if you take a Yamaha 5C mouthpiece, or any stock mouthpiece. And put some mix and set epoxy and make a baffle. That is also very effective and getting a cutting sound if you don’t have the money for a 400-500$ mouthpiece

9:30 where the video? It's been 9 months. Also, why do you despise the selmer s80? I just wondering as that was my first mouthpiece I used to play on the bari.

@Saxman_sam Год назад

Life happens, its more so for Alto and tenor that I don't like it for, Bari is kinda a weird grey area since your embouchure isn't as tight on Bari but the s80 can cause some not so good playing habits such as for the low register having to bring your bottom jaw back a lot to get it to respond well. That's just for me

I play alto and I think Leo P is amazing although I think all of lucky chops is amazing. (Yes I know Leo left and it’s sad)😢

Should I sand the face of my own syos baritone mouthpiece? Or let a professional do and if so where can I find one near socal?

@Saxman_sam Год назад

I would advise against doing your own work on your mouthpieces unless you know exactly what youre doing and what aspects you're trying to change about it, not sure where you're at in the world but there are several very good refacers that could do the work. Tommy Occhioto for one is amazing
