YAMAHA5C Alto Saxophone Mouthpiece, Standard Series

The media could not be loaded. As a professional musican, I play for church/weddings etc. I would recommend this for a player seeking and advanced mouth piece. I would recommend getting this if you are ready to graduate up per say. It has a good material overall all and produces a good tone/sound on your saxophone. There are various brands out there on the market but this is a quality brand per say. This brand is a good mouthpiece and will inhance your playing experience. Also, this brand makes quality alto saxophones (recommend this for starters also (good parent information)q

This mouthpiece arrived on time and adequately packaged. The real treat however was when I mounted it on my sax - along with one of the four Vandoren Jazz Reed Mix reeds I ordered - and belted out the opening phrase of "Winelight" (which is my go-to phrase for testing anything related to the alto sax). The ease with which I was able to voice the phrase and the power in the sound were amazing, and reassuring. The 5C size should prove to be just the right fit for my style. I am sure I will be able to elevate my musical prowess and enjoy doing so with this mouthpiece and reed combo. Highly recommended.

I've been holding myself back for years because I was using a lesser mouthpiece. This was the perfect upgrade to advance my skills. People noticed the change in my sound and abilities. I've been playing for decades. I'll probably get the 6C or even higher to see what differences they make. A great price point to find out what you've been missing.

I started my granddaughter with the 4C mouthpiece, three years later she informs me her section leader informs her she needs a new mouthpiece. Went up to the 5C and it was a great choice. Had studied mouthpieces before and already had an idea we would end up with the 5C. The design, quality, ad affordability made my choice easy. Shipping was quick.

It met / exceeded my expectations.

Good quality

Works great. Better than the original mouthpiece that came with my inexpensive beginner sax . Don't drop it in the sink. I got a little chip.

My son is learning the Alto Sax. He usually has some squeaks and the sound was a little tinny. This cost him an honor band audition. After getting the 5c his squeaking has decreased by 90%, and the sound he produces is rich. He forgot one day and used an old mouthpiece and it was immediately noticeable. Highly recommended the 5c if looking for a high quality sound at a reasonable price.
