Serious Straight-Ahead Jazz Mouthpiece – Not too Dark, Not Too Bright – Just Right. The Studio Jazz is a Classic Jazz Alto mouthpiece in the tradition of the Meyer Mouthpiece. Slightly darker with a little less top end the Studio Jazz still provides good edge and power. It has a solid core that has a lot of bottom in the tone. The Studio Jazz Alto has a very good response with an even scale in all registers and it’s easy to play. The Studio Jazz Series delivers great response in the low register when playing soft (full tone) and in subtone. Good intonation is essential in an Alto saxophone mouthpiece and the Studio Jazz delivers excellent intonation across the range of the Alto sax.
