Rico Metalite Alto Sax Mouthpieces
The original Rico Royal Metalite alto mouthpieces were originally designed by Arnold Brilhart to produce a bright, powerful and edgy tone but on a budget. The new Rico Metalite alto mouthpieces bring back the original design and material (polycarbonate) with improved manufacturing quality and better performance. These mouthpieces all feature a high raised baffle for a bright powerful tone but have a facing design that makes the mouthpieces very reed friendly.
Rico Metalite Alto Mouthpieces are Made In the USA!

Kessler & Sons Music offers a 3 day trial / return policy on the mouthpiece. There are no cleaning fees or restocking fees (assuming that the mouthpiece is returned in proper condition).
When we ship the mouthpiece, we install a tooth patch before shipping. This way you can test the mouthpiece with less fear of damage. However, you can still damage the mouthpiece even with these protections, so make sure to handle it carefully while you are testing it. We recommend leaving these items on the mouthpiece during the testing phase and only to remove them after you have made the decision to keep the mouthpiece. Mouthpieces that are returned with irreparable scratches/marks might not be accepted for return.
Please read our terms & conditions (link at the bottom of the page) for full details on this policy.
