Mouthpieces Warburton D6 Alto

Mat · Apr 18, 2019

G'day

I am wondering if anyone has experience with a Warburton D6 Alto mouthpiece. I have a chance to pick one up a second-hand one which is a (.075) opening which should be fine. However, second hand, you can't return, and there is no opportunity to play it first. Think it might be worth a go, but figured I would check first.

Any thoughts?

Cheers, Matthew

Just use your loaf and don't overpay, otherwise it's toast!

if it's not got any damage to the tip or rails then it should be an excellent mouthpiece
here's a review of one of their older 'pieces - Warburton Alto Saxophone Mouthpiece

They retail for USD210.00 according to their web-site and appear to be based on a Meyer type hard rubber mouthpiece - could be a good mouthpiece if you get it at good (think cheap or inexpensive) price. When I saw the 'D6' model number I thought it might be based on a Bobby Dukoff design.

Good luck,
