Theo Wanne Essentials Contemporary Alto Sax Mouthpiece
Affordable Precision
In the past, low-cost mouthpieces were low quality, and high-quality mouthpieces were expensive. However, the Theo Wanne™ ESSENTIALS COLLECTION brings you incredible quality and low cost, at the same time! The Essentials Contemporary Alto is designed for players needing a mouthpiece that is big, bright and cuts through when power and projection is needed. Great for rock, pop, smooth jazz, worship and other contemporary styles. Lead alto players love it too!.
Featuring a Medium High-Step Baffle and a Medium Chamber, the Essentials Contemporary Alto is available in 2 tip openings:
-
- Size 5: 0.071″ (1.80mm)
- Size 7: 0.081″ (2.06mm)
Medium High-Step Baffle
This baffle has the best projection of all baffle shapes. The Step-Baffle was made popular by Dave Guardala with his famous Michael Brecker model, and Dukoff with their Super Power Chamber D mouthpieces. A step baffle is necessary for most R&B and rock and roll playing to cut through the rest of the band.
