Here for an Aizen "LS" 7* (=0,105") tenor mouthpiece.
Photos: http://fotoalbum.virgilio.it/tzadik/aizen_slant_tenor/
It's in like new conditions... just play tested.
There are some traces of cork grease inside the shank: it looks like there are some chips inside, inside in the shank... but it's only cork grease.
And I forgot to wash it before to take the photos: there some strange reflections in the baffle due to the flash but there's no trace of oxidation (the mouthpiece is made in a natural resin, not in ebonite).
This should be a copy the Otto Link Tone Edge Slant Signature... as advertised.
I have to say it doesnt' sound like a Slant, but it's pretty close to a good Early Babbitt.
The beak profile is lower as on an Early Babbitt... the baffle is some between a Slant and an EB.
The sound is a little warmer than a normal Early Babbitt... medium-to-low resistance, extremely reed friendly.
It's a great example of japanese top notch craftsmanship.
Price: EUR 252 (two hundred and fifty two euros).
You'll save about 20% from a new one
Shipping with international registred mail (with tracking service) is included.
I can also offer trial period for European users... if you can cover the shipping costs.
Currency conversion: http://www.xe.com/ucc/
I'll be happy to donate 5% to the forum charity fund (if I sell them through this forum).
