Otto Link HARD RUBBER TENOR SAX MOUTHPIECE EARLY BABBITT OPENING 7

An "Early Babbitt" Design Appreciated for Its Character

The "Early Babbitt" designation evokes a mouthpiece aesthetic sought after by many saxophonists: expressive playing, marked sound presence, and reliable behavior when pushing air. This bonite model fits this idea of a tenor mouthpiece with a strong personality, designed to provide a solid and musical tonal foundation.

For Which Saxophonist and Styles

With its opening 7 (tip opening), this tenor saxophone mouthpiece is well suited for intermediate to professional musicians who want to gain breadth without losing control. It adapts to a wide range of styles: jazz, funk, pop, big band, and more modern playing, while remaining relevant whenever a lively, flexible, and projected tenor sound is desired.

Sound and Design

Bonite promotes a pleasant contact and naturally dense sound. Here, the goal is clear: a rich timbre, a clear projection, and a sharp response that facilitates note attacks and articulation precision. The opening 7 provides latitude to shape the sound (dynamics, attacks, vibrato) and explore different colors depending on the reed and air column, with a playing sensation that is both free and controllable.
