      Reeds definitely aren’t cheap.

      I’m currently playing on a 6* GS Slant mouthpiece. It’s an Otto link Florida Slant Signature Tone Edge Replica. $199

      I love it. I currently am using D’Addario Select Jazz reeds 2 Hard. I really like the in between sizes. Same with Rigotti Gold.

      Many say ligatures don’t make a difference, but I have a Rovner Dark, a Boston Sax shop Brass Superlative and a Francois louis Brass Ultimate and there are big differences between the three. I use the Ultimate with my set up. It really opens up the sound.

        I saw Questions across the top of the PDF.

        No boxes were checked and it didn’t list reed type or strength

          Really good info being posted on reeds.

          The following is from the 10mfan website. Many nice mouthpieces are available from 10mfan. Mark talks the importance of the reed.

                  Sounds good Leo! That 62 is a nice saxophone. Hope you have a lot of fun with it!

                    I have a Trevor James XS and this new horn plays more even top to bottom. Very smooth especially the pinky keys. I still sound like me which is a good thing I hope but a far, far cry away from how Johnny sounds 🙂
