Guardala Mouthpiece with Ligature, Cap and Elk-Leatherbag
Handmade mouthpieces are meticulously optimized, the smooth surfaces and exceptionally precise handwork make them play more easy and very consistent and reliable.
FATBOY mouthpieces are fatter than the original Guardala’s. The elliptical shape allows the mouthpiece to have a larger size, with a lesser increase of weight. The resulting size/weight ratio is the only way of producing a “BALANCED SOUND” with a mouthpiece larger than the original Dave Guardala Mouthpiece.
This model is the exact replica of the mouthpiece that Michael Brecker used. This model incorporates a moderately high baffle with a large bore. It is less bright than the Studio Model but brighter than the Traditional Model. It should be used for the Mainstream Jazz. Tip opening 116” (8*).
