Description
// Otto Link Hybrid Model Tone Edge Original Rubber for Tenor Sax //

This is a classic and iconic mouthpiece for jazz tenor saxophone, and it continues to be loved by many players.
Its greatest appeal lies in its gleaming gold-plated body, rollover-type baffle, and large bore, which produce a rich, warm tone and allow for expressive playing.
From whispering subtones to powerful, full sounds, it can handle a wide range of genres and jazz playing styles, allowing you to play the sound you envision.

■Preferred genres: Classical jazz, bebop, blues, contemporary jazz, etc.
■Features: A well-balanced, powerful tone with resonant bass and clear treble. It is generally considered the "standard" tone for jazz saxophone.
■Resistance: It has a certain degree of resistance, striking a good balance between expressive play and control.
■Capabilities: Excellent, impactful sound. Ideal for both intimate settings and large-scale ensemble performances.

[Hybrid Model]
This mouthpiece combines the traditional craftsmanship and finishing techniques that JJ Babbitt has cultivated at Elkhart with Theo Wanne's latest process control, precision manufacturing, and measurement standards.
We eliminate individual variations while preserving the iconic appeal of the mouthpiece.
Hybrid models have a lot number engraved on the mouthpiece itself.
