NEW 2010!
The New Drake Hybrid Contemporary II has the perfect balance of power, depth and edge with the right amount of resistance, but still very easy blowing.
In my opinion this is a piece of heaven; after 20 years looking for the perfect contemporary mouthpieces I finally got it! Plus the unbeatable warranty and great price make this mouthpiece the best deal in the industry.
Thank you Aaron
