The Drake Custom Contemporary alto sax mouthpiece is designed to give your music a powerful, expressive tone. This mouthpiece is ideal for playing R&B, Funk, Rock and Jazz Fusion Styles. It is made with a Step baffle that features a graduated transition into a medium chamber. This helps speed up the air column while it gives the best possible balance to the overtone series, providing amazing articulation and altissimo response. The porcelain ceramic material used to make the alto sax mouthpiece has the highest surface density of any material so that you get an immediate, clear response. It's easier to articulate fast staccato passages and it also heightens dynamic capabilities.

In addition to providing you with incredible intonation stability and unsurpassed response throughout the entire instrument range, the alto sax mouthpiece will never warp, corrode, or change in any way.

The innovative material has resulted in an alto sax mouthpiece design that offers unsurpassed quality. While the ceramic provides the strength of metal, it also offers a new dimension in tone, stability and responsiveness.
