Saxscape

Saxcape Mouthpieces are probably the best Tenor Sax mouthpieces out there, handmade by Kenneth Barry, a gifted Saxophone player and skilled artisan who know the secret to craft amazing mouthpieces.

I thought I had to spend the rest of my life searching for the right Tenor mouthpiece and then I've tried Saxscape and now my relationship with the Tenor it's finally perfect. Now I can really just concentrate in making music because the sound is there, perfect balance of edge and body, intonation it's spot on all across the range, altissimo it's a breeze, right amount of resistance, perfect articulation and reeds friendly, Saxscape MPCs are really well above all the rest that I've tried, included really expensive boutique like and vintage, probably it's because Ken Barry is a great Sax player too that he have found the magic formula for a perfect Tenor MPC.
