Laura Dreyer on the New ESP Alto Gold:
"Finally a metal alto mouthpiece that is both clear and warm, as well as
bright and vibrant. I know many alto players that have been searching
for a metal mouthpiece that would give them a more contemporary sound
without sounding shrill, but until now there were few options. I feel as
though I have finally found the sound that I have been searching for."
On the JodyJazz Alto:
"I'm really glad that you turned
me on to your JodyJazz alto mouthpiece. I am very impressed with
the dynamic range that I am able to get on it. The mouthpiece allows
me to play strong and bright when necessary, without sacrificing
the ability to play extremely soft and subtone, all with a nice
fat sound that feels very even throughout the entire range of the
horn. In addition, I am able to get both a bright and dark sound
at the same time. I've been getting a lot of compliments on my sound
since I've been playing the JodyJazz alto #9. You rock and your
mouthpieces rock!"
