Mouthpiece/Lig FS New PPT Mouthpiece: "the Hooligan"

So far just a prototype, but I'm very excited by this It is an alto piece with a large but surprisingly beautiful curve. A baffle reminiscent of the PT tenor. No you can't have one yet, this is just a teaser of the prototype

[EDIT] Passaround: If you would like to take part in the pass around trial, please use the contact form on Taming The Saxophone and choose HOOL0116 from the subject dropdown. Include your postal address and forum name.

By doing this you accept the terms of the pass around:

The rules are simple:

  • Damage or loss is paid for by the recipient.
  • Use a mouthpiece patch and protect the body from ligature scratches.
  • Report any dame as soon as you see it.
  • Ideally send on after three days, or at the longest a week. (But do please try with a section of reeds not already used on a different mouthpiece)
  • Send on to the next person, insured for £150, (or $200, €200) or uninsured at your own risk. - if it doesn't arrive at the destination, then you pay for it.
A fair review would be appreciated.

how does he know how much you have altered it to then produce the "stock" finished item as per Pete Thomas?

I think I can reveal that: it is not as easy as it sounds.
Ed uses silicon moulds, but the prototype preparation is crucial (it must be pruple).

Note to the marketing manager of the Pete Thomas Industries: purple is unlucky on stage.
 
Simple Rhyming, I see.
What do you use to conceal the world "real ale"? "Pale ale"?
The old "proper" rhyming slang was a "Thelma Ritter" as in "take a ball of chalk down the frog and toad, nip into the rubba dub and have a Thelma Ritter, Ver Lynn and then get a sherbet dab"......that is "take a walk down the road into the pub for a bitter and a gin and then get a cab home".
 
Not to go offtopic:
Nephew (and niece) = Mouthpiece
Hope (and pray) = Lay
Lottery (and raffle) = Baffle
Cuppa (of tea) = PPT

So instead of saying "I bought a new mouthpiece with a long lay and a high baffle: a PPT" you can say "I got a nephew with a long hope and a high lottery: a cuppa". And your partner will not suspect a thing.
