RIA Baritone Sax Mouthpiece
9* (.130)

Made in Italy

Sold

These are no longer made.
This hand-finished Italian mouthpiece is one of the best baritone mouthpieces ever made.
It has a "Beefy", room-filling sound.
Similar to a 130/02 Berg, it will give you the Pepper Adams sound that you are looking for.
This mouthpiece will require a strong airstream.

You can see it has a toothpatch on the beak. The toothpatch is pretty much worn through. I don't think there is much wear to the top of the beak, but when I get some new toothpatches in, I will take off this old one, and take a photo.

The tip and rails are in excellent playable condition.

I tried to get a picture of the way the sidewalls are hollowed out just where the baffle ends, but I didn't really succeed in getting a good photo. Maybe when I photograph the beak, I will put a light up the bore and try again.

This mouthpiece is a pro mouthpiece, good enough to be used on gigs or recording sessions.
