Nadir Fat Boy Studio - Alto Sax Mouthpiece - Silver Plated (Hand Finished)

Manufactured by high precision CNC technology by the legendary Dave Guardala's workshop colleague, Nadir Ibrahimoglu, of PMS Music in Germany. Though Guardala himself is no longer manufacturing these remarkable mouthpieces, their spirit, design and attention to detail lives on & Nadir's models can certainly live up to the original Guardalas- made famous by Michael Brecker and others.

For response, projection and overall playability these are some of the best of the best. Superbly finished, a Guardala piece is not only a top quality tool for the discerning player but an object of great beauty…

This model features a high baffle, medium bore. It is suitable for a wide range of playing situations ranging from David Sanborn Style to Mainstream Jazz. It has a bright full-bodied compact sound with high volume.

FATBOY mouthpieces are fatter than the original Guardala’s. The elliptical shape allows the mouthpieceto have a larger size, with a lesser increase of weight. The resulting size/weight ratio is the only way of producing a “BALANCED SOUND” with a mouthpiece larger than the original Dave Guardala Mouthpiece.
