Mouthpiece/Lig FS Selmer Soloist alto mouthpiece E

Immaculate mouthpiece in its original packing. Bought when I was searching for the right tone, before settling for a Super Session in the end. Tip opening E.
Genuinely unused.

Is tip opening E a big tip opening? I'm a bit of a noob as been away from the sax for around 10 years, is this easy to play? Or more for advanced player that has better than me embouchure?

Thanks

Just been looking and think the E opening will be to big for me, might go with the jazz flow instead.

Thanks

Hi Luke,
Selmer give the tip opening for the Alto Soloist mouthpiece as 2mm. This is a wider opening than the usual beginner's set up. A softer reed can compensate for this, of course, but that depends on what you're used to, and what reed strength you're already using. Having said that, I didn't find the The Soloist to be a"difficult" mouthpiece. What mouthpiece are you currently playing?

That's OK.

That's OK.

Tried the yamaha 4c which was good, easy to play but a little loose on my neck cork, so now using a bari esprit, I'm wanting to learn more blues on the saxophone but play a bit of everything, badly at the moment lol

I just want one decent mouthpiece for now that I can stick with for a few years, love what I'm hearing about the jazz flow and thought the soloist might be worth a punt.

I'm sure it will be too much for me to handle at the moment though.

Thanks

Luke
