Wagner ‘JK Blank’ Alto, Rubber – 0.061″

SOLD - here's another winner!--a cheap option: hard rubber. No script. medium-large chamber...poised for a nice, crisp, jazz tone. Originally 0.061" on arrival, It will get reface and play crisp and clear! Likely to about 0.063-068"...or check in to see if you can request the size! Comes with one screw ligature!
Current play test: medium resistance. I'm not sure if I like that, and would certainly look into the tip for finesse work. This should be a very clear, clean tone, with free-blowing traits.

Selmer ‘Elkhart- New York 2’ Alto, (WWS reface)- 0.069″(Archived)

SOLD - vintage Selmer, marked "2", with links to Zimberoff stencil line of mouthpieces (aka = awesome!)...I just refaced it to 0.069". It plays excellent! It has a medium-large, round chamber with rounded side walls. A great blowing piece! excellent center core tone with projection. My last one was an AWESOME player! reminded me of a Meyer/Link tone, but better (good price!). no lig sorry. It plays nice, with a mild resistance.

Selmer ‘”JAZZ” E’ Alto, 1980s Silver Plated – 0.077″ (Archived)

SOLD - Silver plated brass mouthpiece from the 80s. excellent I will make this a proper 0.077", then silver plate the repairs. It arrived without a ligature, but I think I have a soprano rovner-like wrap(with metal reed plate) to include.

Wolfe Tayne ‘3*’ Alto, Rubber, (WWS reface)- 0.079″ (Archived)

SOLD - FANTASTIC SOUND! WWS refaced 0.080"(photos of reface "in progress"), medium chamber with side walls.
I fully expect, due to the design of this one, that it will be a VERY NICE BLOWER! I will give it the extra time for a precision reface.

Wolfe Tayne ‘7*’ Alto, Nickel Plated Brass (Archived)

SOLD - Looks like nickel plated brass, arrived with original tip at 0.093". wrap ligature, on arrival. good condition. large square chamber. TONE: This was a shocker! It was rich, not 'trebly' or shrill on a 2.5 Alexander reed with a great response.

Other: ‘Sumner Acousticut’ Alto, (RAC reface)- 0.082″ (Archived)

SOLD - I was pleased to get this piece, they are really good quality hard rubber, great over all sound. It has a large chamber and was a 5* WS model, but we had Bob Carpenter open it to a .082" tip and it's just perfect now.

Other: ‘No Name- White Composite’ Alto, (RAC reface)- 0.082″ (Archived)

SOLD - Here is a White composite plastic mouthpiece and it's very nice. We got it with its original tip and Bob Carpenter opened it up to a .082" with a 19mm facing... and it is easy to blow, makes a big vintage tone, with just a little edge. It's a medium/small chamber, fat sound(similiar to an Ebolin), with a great price.
