I thought yours had had a baffle added to give it some extra oomph? i tried an 8 at a Fat45 rehearsal once- lovely sound, when i played toward the plate glass window in the studio it sounded great, as soon as I turned back into the room it vanished without trace (Fat45 are fairly loud but nothing compared with a rock band)The one I had would go pretty loud, but that might have been because it was a 9*
Hey gang. What do you guys think about the Otto link new York mouthpiece? I just got one for my tenor.

more than your duckbill berg?Absolutely screams, and it's as loud as any piece I've ever played.
No, that's a different Link. That's a highly modified beast, an old standard Link with scooped out side walls, levelled table and rails and a whopping great baffle. Absolutely screams, and it's as loud as any piece I've ever played. Even Nick (see above) would like it!
Anything louder than a duckbill berg is a bit of a scary prospect!Yup, it's a belter
It's not really a Link then?
A New York Link, very wide, with a high baffle built in- suppose you've got yourself something a bit like a Durga thereNo, not any more. Look a right mess, lost most plating, the baffle is a crude wedge of epoxy, but it plays better (for me at least) than any other mouthpiece I've ever had.
