For sale is a fantastic Steve Broadus New York 'Perfected Model' for tenor saxophone that has just undergone special treatment by Johannes Gerber. Cosmetically, you won't find any other hard rubber mouthpiece that is finished fike this mouthpiece. It's clean, every line is perfect, every rail, side and tip - perfect... Like all Johannes Gerber mouthpieces, the sound is balanced very evenly, and response is instant through the whole range. The mouthpiece behaves consistent with various reeds and this makes it a dream to play.

The hard rubber is old, and of the best vintage rubber found. Initially, the piece had a tip opening of 0.075". After opening it to 0.098" , it has a very nice roll-over baffle which gives it more projection and a nice edge when pushed. The chamber is large with rounded sidewalls. The balance between darkness and projection is remarkable. Altissimo and subtones are effortless.

With a hard reed this mouthpiece gives a very 'Stan Getz' like sound.

If you like vintage Meyer Bros and Otto Link Slant Sig pieces, this Steve Broadus will not disappoint you!
