Description
// PARAFIT Lip Guard for Wind instrument //

Parafit is a lip paper designed for single-reed players such as saxophone players to reduce pain on the inside of the lips when playing.
Developed in collaboration with saxophone player Hiroshi Matsushita and a dental clinic, this product focuses on fit and sound stability to improve performance.
Because it is made from natural materials, it is not harmful to the body, and it is tasteless and odorless, so you can concentrate on playing without tasting or smelling it when you put it in your mouth.
Each piece is carefully crafted and individually handcrafted.

■Recommended for saxophone and clarinet players who have these concerns◎
・My lips hurt while playing or practicing for long periods of time. ・My lower jaw teeth are misaligned, so too much pressure is placed on one point on the reed. ・It's difficult to control the tone. ・I want to produce a more sustained sound. ・It feels strange when I play with paper covering my teeth.

■Features ・Stronger than oil blotting paper and cigarette rolling papers ・Available in two types, regular and soft, which can be adjusted to suit the player ・Easy to fit to the teeth, so you can talk while wearing them ・Gives a rounder, fuller sound ・Doesn't get mushy in the mouth and doesn't tear

■ Two types available: Regular (#7): A standard type that emphasizes rigidity while pursuing a moderate hardness that fits easily to the teeth.
・Soft (♭5): More flexible, softer and smoother than regular.
Its high flexibility makes it suitable for players with well-aligned teeth and those who do not put much pressure on the mouthpiece.

■Specifications・Ingredients: Natural paraffin・100% unbleached cotton gauze・Contents: Approximately 60mm x 90mm x 2 sheets (approximately 2.5g per sheet)
-Storage method: Avoid high temperatures and humidity and store in a cool, dark place.
-Handling precautions: Use as soon as possible after opening.
・Manufacturer/Distributor: SOU Co., Ltd. 6-3 Higashisumiyoshi, Tokorozawa City, Saitama Prefecture
