Jodyjazz HR* Custom Dark 7 - Tenor

A "Premium" series designed for the Jody Jazz sound signature

Founded by Jody Espina, the Jody Jazz brand has established itself with an approach focused on innovation and meticulous manufacturing. The HR* Custom Dark series represents the brand's top-of-the-line ebonite offering in this segment: the goal is clear, to provide a tenor mouthpiece with a dense, soft, and warm sound, while maintaining the energy and "punch" appreciated by saxophonists. Each piece is individually crafted in Savannah (USA), with strict quality standards and careful finishing.

For which tenor saxophonist

The Jody Jazz HR* Custom Dark is aimed at intermediate to professional saxophonists seeking a dark, controlled, and musical tone. It is particularly suitable for contexts where depth without harshness is desired: jazz, ballads, soul, R&B, big band (section), studio work, as well as any situation where roundness and sound homogeneity take precedence over a very bright timbre.

Sound and design

This model was designed to be the darkest mouthpiece in the Jody Jazz range. The combined work of the baffle and a large chamber allows for a full and warm sound, while maintaining a lively attack and good feedback for the player. The ebonite promotes comfortable emission and a sense of control, especially in dynamics, with a refined aesthetic thanks to the gold-plated metal ring placed on the mouthpiece's tenon.

Recommended compatible accessories

As this mouthpiece is delivered without ligature or mouthpiece cap, plan for a ligature and a mouthpiece cap compatible with tenor saxophone ebonite mouthpieces. If you are unsure about compatibility (depending on your current ligature and exact diameter), it is best to check with your saxophone model and ligature type before purchase.
