"Great Jazz Mouthpiece"

I play this mouthpiece on an 82z Yamaha Tenor, and it has an excellent jazz tone. Takes a little more work to produce a sound than my stock MP, but it?s worth it. I Compared it with a Meyer and a Link (both rubber), and liked this one the best. Difficult to make a nice tone for symphonic, but that?s not what it's for. Beware that it does not include a lig or cap.

"Vandoren has finally found the vintage sound"

The Vandoren V16 Tenor mouthpiece is a great rubber mouthpiece for the price. The mouthpiece has a large chamber opening that lets you play with a large and robust sound. The feel of the mouthpiece in the mouth feels snug and comfortable similar to an old Meyer or Otto link. It comes with no ligature, but a great ligature to try with the mouthpiece is a large Rovner, a Frantois Louis brass or gold chamber ligature, and the Vandoren Optium 16 that has three chambers so you can see which piece will give you the sound you are looking for. The only flaw about the mouthpiece is some players will think it?s too big, but to understand from a big stand point, it?s not as big as an old white Brilhart mouthpiece.

"Very happy with the V 16! "

I recently recorded myself playing my Yannie 991/Vandoren V-16 #7/JaZZ reed # 3. I used a quality digital recorder and placed the mike close enough to capture every nuance. I was blown away with the wide ranged consistency of tonality, accurate pitch, and the endless expressive capabilities. I love the sound. I love the horn. I love the mouthpiece. I love the reed. I can't imagine playing any other set up for combo jazz and big band. I also use it in a classical sax quartet, and the V-16 allows me to blend in very well. I have tried others, but I honestly can't see paying more for a mouthpiece that is not really any better. Oh, I use the Rovner lig, if that makes any difference. Did I mention the very wide dynamic range of this set up? I also have an "8" when I don't have a long gig to play, because it has a slightly "heavier" quality, but with the same projection and expression. I feel as though these pieces were custom built just for me. Don't spend too much money on a mouthpiece unless it makes you a better player.

"Excellent Tone and Playability"

I am looking for a strong mpc. That will cut trumpets and electrically assisted instruments. I'm not sure why I tried this mpc. BUT I'm sure glad that I did. It's a GREAT ensemble / smooth Jazz mpc. Very easy to control. I used both Vandoren Java (2 1/2) and Fibracell (3). GREAT Tone. Very classic saxophone. Another added value; Vandorens do not need to be refaced. I tried a T8 model. Not a marching band or Rock / Fusion mpc. But too good to pass up in the right application.

This mouthpiece is probably the best thing that ever happened to me.(as far as music goes) I play on a Saxophone.com tenor sax model and it roars when the V16 is on it along V16 #3 reeds. I got the T7 which I was surprised to see, was the lowest facing available. But the rich, solid tone this mouthpiece provides is an amazing jazz tone. By talking into the instrument while playing, I can now make a mean, nasty, powerful tone like that raspy sound of Clarence Clemmons. I can listen to the classical jazz stuff and create a prefect match in sound compared to John Coltrane and several other legends. (They?re not lying when they say, "This mouthpiece is designed to imitate the sound response of jazz mouthpieces from the 50's.") All I can say is that if you want an amazing mouthpiece that will allow you to create the prefect TRUE JAZZ sound, choose Vandoren V16.You won't regret it.
