An Otto Link Mouthpiece Designed for a Brighter "Link Sound"
Otto Link is an essential reference among tenor saxophonists, particularly appreciated for its sonic personality in jazz and contemporary music contexts. The RG version stands out with a brighter approach than the standard Link, while maintaining a comfortable playing feel and a wide dynamic range.
For Which Saxophonist?
This mouthpiece is mainly aimed at intermediate to advanced saxophonists seeking presence and energy: jazz, funk, soul, pop, big band, but also any situation where you need to "cut through the mix." The 118 and 128 tip openings are especially suitable for players comfortable with a higher airflow.
Sound and Design
Made of ebonite, the RG offers a pleasant contact and a consistent response. Its parabolic chamber promotes smooth emission, strong projection, and a wide range of dynamics, from soft playing to very powerful, with a naturally brighter timbre.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To optimize the result, choose tenor saxophone reeds suited to the tip opening (lower strength for larger openings), and add a adhesive mouthpiece patch if needed to preserve comfort and mouthpiece longevity.
Product subject to a specific withdrawal right: for hygiene reasons, if the product has been opened, it must be free of any signs of use to be eligible for withdrawal (refund or exchange).
