Other mouthpieces, ligatures and necks

List updated 30. May 2023   

For questions or pictures, telephone +45 twenty 85 twelve 31 or write to:    donottoand(AT) gmail (dot) com

Unless stated otherwise, the mouthpieces are used and are sold without ligature and cap.
Mouthpieces will be shipped from Denmark.

Sales are private meaning that returns are not accepted unless agreed upon on beforehand. Mouthpieces are sold as is.


I have too many mouthpieces. Therefore, around half have been reduced to a unit price of €49.


All play fine. Some even play and sound very good. Some have small tip openings, but play well with a hard reed.
All saxplayers could play small tip openings before 1950. Getz, Brew Moore, Coleman Hawkins, Lester Young.


Some are ugly after refacing to make them playable again. But are you going to look at the mouthpiece, or play it?

One mouthpiece €49, Five mouthpieces for €200
Paypal or bank transfer. Fixed shipping cost €19
