    This listing is for a vintage baritone saxophone mouthpiece. There is no brand name on it, but it was probably a product of one of the big 5 American sax makers from the pre-WWII era. My guess would be most likely Conn or Martin, or possibly Buescher.
    This piece is made of hard rubber, not plastic. It is a fat body style mouthpiece, so it takes a very large ligature (included). It has deeply scooped inner side walls, and a large round chamber. The  tip opening measurement is .085". It looks like it might have been opened up a little. If so the work was done quite well.
    This mouthpiece is in very good physical condition. The facing is perfectly smooth. There are no tooth indentations on the beak. It is still black and shiny. The ligature and cap are in very good condition as well. All pieces have been cleaned/sanitized, so it is ready to use.
    This mouthpiece plays great. Even though it is a relatively small tip opening, it produces a massive sound. It is very spread (fat), and on the dark side, but not tubby sounding. This would be a great match for vintage Bari's, which tend to require a large chamber mouthpiece for proper tuning. There is also room to open up the tip further if you so desired.
    Please feel free to email me with any questions.
    Thanks again for looking!
    Note to international buyers:
    Due to the current global pandemic, international shipments via USPS mail are experiencing significant delays. This is due to lack of available transportation (ie. mail is normally carried overseas as cargo on commercial passenger flights, however the flight schedules have been slashed). European buyers have experienced wait times of up to 2 months for shipments to arrive. If this potential wait presents a problem for you, please refrain from purchasing at this time. I sincerely apologize for this, unfortunately unavoidable, inconvenience.
