Ebonite and hard rubber alto sax mouthpieces

CG Mouthpiece Italy ebonite hard rubber mouthpieces are sculpted starting from solid bars of the best quality. The sculpting process is performed in compliance with the orientation of the extrusion fibres and, although it is very expensive with respect to other manufacturing methods, it provides the mouthpiece with great stability and unparalleled timbre richness.

The first, high-precision mechanical phase of the manufacturing process ensures the compliance with the essential parameters of the mouthpiece – length and planarity of the plane, development of the curve, symmetry of the rails, internal geometry.

All these parameters are carefully studied and assessed during the design process for each model. Then, the mouthpieces are carefully processed, hand finished and, after all parameters have been verified, tested: a “field” test that is essential for us, so each piece is played.

The shanks of the mouthpieces are made of bronze, the same material used for our metal mouthpieces, in order to transmit the vibrations to the instrument in the best possible way.

Amalfi tenor ebonite

315.00 € VAT excl.

The Amalfi model was designed for musicians that look for a traditional sound, warm and full, combined with a great projection. Its short roll-over baffle, flowing into a medium-large chamber, provides the Amalfi model with a full, not excessively dark timbre. The window walls are flat, ensuring a greater projection and focus for the sound as well as an obviously easy emission. The not excessively large chamber helps have great control over the mouthpiece. The thick shank is made of brass and is the same as the one used for our metal mouthpieces, plated with 24-carat gold. The Amalfi model is recommended for those who prefer a dark, not very resistant sound and with a certain brightness.

Rovner Ligature & cap included.

Infinito tenor ebonite – serie II

380.00 € VAT excl.

The Infinito model for tenor saxophone is the darkest of CG Mouthpiece Italy mouthpieces. It was designed with the intention of creating a dark model with a great projection. For a dark mouthpiece, the Infinito model has a very rich timber, not dull at all. Without a baffle – except a light and almost undetectable roll-over baffle on the tip – it has a medium chamber that provides the sound with great focus. The chamber was designed in order to provide the sound depth of a big chamber, while maintaining the typical projection and focus of a medium chamber. The window walls are slightly concave and seamlessly flow into the medium chamber. The Infinito model was designed for saxophonists who look for a full and dark sound, characterized by excellent focus and timbre richness that provide this model with excellent features and an unusual character for a mouthpiece that can be classified as “dark”.

Rovner Ligature & cap included.

Syracuse tenor – hard rubber

358.00 € VAT excl.

The Syracuse model was designed for musicians who look for a traditional, warm and full sound as well as timbre homogeneity and great projection. Its short roll-over baffle, flowing into a medium-large chamber, provides the Syracuse model with a full, not excessively dark timbre. The window walls are concave in order to ensure an obvious timbre depth in all registers. The shank is made of bronze, the same material used in our metal mouthpieces, and plated with 24-carat gold. The Syracuse model is available in both ebonite and hard rubber. The composition of the latter includes a higher percentage of natural rubber, providing the mouthpiece with different harmonic features from ebonite, which are surely more complex. The Syracuse model is recommended for those who prefer a dark sound but still holding a certain brightness, as well as a good balance between resistance and sound projection.

Ligature & cap (Rovner) included
