Steve Lacy had a handful of this rare Otto Link Tone Edge design (short lived) and he played them for 30 years. I played his last one and it changed my soprano life.

When I began doing mouthpieces, I acquired a few of these very different Tone Edge designs (nothing like the Tone Edge pieces before or after it) and made my own “copies” of Steve’s piece. One was a virtual exact copy, which has had a new home for 15 years now.

This is my last one.

It has a tip of .080, smaller than Steve’s # 12. I find no difference in how it plays compared to Steve’s. None.

I am retired from playing and this mouthpiece has remained unplayed for the last 6 years.

Instant response, gorgeous clean sound, impeccable intonation and monumental range. You can hear me playing it below.

I am the only mouthpiece maker that knew Steve’s piece and could have made one that plays like Steve’s. This is it.

Steve’s piece changed my soprano world, and this one might do the same for you.
