Phil-Tone Solstice Alto Saxophone Mouthpiece 8

The Solstice harkens to the days of the West Coast school of sound, made famous by such greats as Paul Desmond, Art Pepper and Lee Konitz. The sounds and styles of these greats inspired the creation of this mouthpiece. The Solstice has a rich core and a full harmonic palate, while also possessing a lively and lyrical quality. There have been several modern attempts to approach the West Coast sound but the majority leave the player with a stuffy, dull and resistant piece. The Solstice plays open, full and with ease. Its responsive, ringing, centered tone provides a unique avenue towards expression and opens the door to new possibilities. As well as the West Coast vibe, the Solstice offers extreme levels of versatility and can easily hold its own in lead situations. From flowing bossa novas, to the jazz quartet standards, to a beautiful, lyrical, emotional balladthe Solstice does it all.Incredible versatilityPopular West Coast vibeSweet and powerful toneHandcrafted and play tested
