Vandoren V16 S6 Mouthpiece for Soprano Saxophone
New product
Vandoren mouthpieces have defined the ideal saxophone sound for decades. The V16 mouthpiece is inspired by the sound of the greatest jazz musicians from the fifties to the present. It is one of the most widely used mouthpieces and offers a richer depth of sound while keeping the free-blowing nature and projection that characterise the V16 alto models. The S+ chamber accommodates more air, providing the musician with that greater flexibility and a wider array of colours. JAVA, V16 and ZZ reeds are recommended for these mouthpieces.

More info
Each mouthpiece is polished to a brilliant finish. The final adjustment of the facing is done by staged diamond cutting tools. The tolerances of 4/10,000 of an inch are so small that, to maintain precision, the table is not polished. Each mouthpiece is hand finished at the baffle, walls, and tip rail. Master craftsmen finish and adjust each mouthpiece to surpass the most critical examinations of professional musicians. The mouthpieces are polished one last time (except the facing area) to eliminate marks and imperfections. The Vandoren name is then stamped in gold on the mouthpiece along with the model number.
