Otto Link Super Tone Master V Tenor Saxophone Mouthpiece - NEW

From JJ Babbitt:

The Otto Link Super Tone Master 5 is the latest evolution in a mouthpiece that has been the heart and soul of the saxophone sound in American jazz for much of the 20th and 21st centuries. This fifth-generation mouthpiece is not just a continuation—it’s a masterful evolution of a legacy, refined to meet the demands of today’s musicians. Professional players are calling it, along with the new Florida 5, the best Link they’ve ever played—equal to, and perhaps even surpassing, the classic versions that shaped jazz history. This is more than just a mouthpiece; it’s a piece of history reborn, designed to carry forward the sound that legends like Coleman Hawkins, Dexter Gordon, and John Coltrane made iconic.

The Super Tone Master 5 was crafted with both the precision of modern engineering and the insights gained from extensive historical research. In this latest iteration, we have returned to the “core” sound that defined its predecessors while enhancing it for modern versatility. Over the years, the original forging dies had fallen out of spec due to wear and tear, leading to subtle inconsistencies in production. To remedy this, we created entirely new forging dies, realigning the design to match the exact specifications of the original Super Tone Master models. We also utilized laser scanning technology to analyze vintage pieces, ensuring this new generation captures the rich, warm, and balanced tone that made the originals so revered.
