Description

HERE IS A RARE VINTAGE WOLFE TAYNE GOLD PLATED BRASS #7 or .100" TENOR SAX MOUTHPIECE  MADE BY WOLFEGANG TANNENBAUM formerly of FT. LAUDERDALE, FL. WOLFEGANG MARKETED HIS HANDFACED JJ BABBITT MOUTHPIECES UNDER THE NAME WOLFE TAYNE and LATER ON AS GUY HAWKINS.
IT HAS BEEN PERFECTED TO A SMOOTH PLAYING AND FREE BLOWING BERG LARSEN AND OTTO LINK STM HYBRID TENOR MOUTHPIECE. IT COMES WITH A FREE ROVNER LIGATURE AND BLACK PLASTIC CAP.
THE WOLFE TAYNE SIGNATURE APPEARS ON THE TOP OF THE SHANK WITH THE #7 AT THE BOTTOM OF THE TABLE. .100" and GW HAS BEEN ENGRAVED ON THE SIDE TO INDICATE THE MODIFICATION.
IT FEATURES A SMALL HORSESHOE SHAPED CHAMBER WITH A NICELY ARCHED FLAT TO VERY SLIGHTLY CONCAVE BAFFLE. STRAIGHT SIDEWALLS.  THIS IS THE ONLY ONE OF THESE THAT I HAVE SEEN IN GOLD PLATE.  IT IS A PEASHOOTER STYLE MOUTHPIECE WHICH IS ON THE BRIGHT SIDE BUT NOT HARSH SOUNDING.  POWERFUL AND CLEAR WITH SOME WARMTH FOR A SWEET TENOR SOUND.
THE TABLE HAS BEEN TRUED OR LEVELED TO ELIMINATE EXCESSIVE CONCAVITY FOR A BETTER SEALING REED.  A NICELY SHAPED BAFFLE PROVIDES IMMEDIATE RESPONSE.
PLAY TESTED ON JAVA 2 1/2 REEDS.
