Theo Wanne Lakshmi Tenor 24k Gold Plated Mouthpiece (6* / 7 / 8 / 9)

Description: Theo Wanne Lakshmi - 24k Gold Plated Tenor Mouthpiece (6* / 7 / 8 / 9 openings) The LAKSHMI is the evolution of the traditional vintage tenor sound! A BIG Vintage Large Chamber Sound but with incredible Focus and Core. Not too bright, or too dark, but the perfect balance. It is the evolution of the traditional Vintage Otto Link Florida style of sound. “I have been on a journey for several years to find a tenor mouthpiece that would cover the “full spectrum” of the music and style’s I love and play. The Lakshmi has finally achieved that goal. It’s a really amazing mouthpiece !!! I used to use a vintage Otto Link that came from Dexter’s widow. The LAKSHMI is far superior !!! Theo is the only one qualified to carry on the legacy of the great vintage mouthpiece manufacturers.” – Glenn Zottola (Chick Corea, Benny Goodman, Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, Mel Tormé, Louis Armstrong) It uses a unique and proprietary Elongated-Roll-Over-Baffle™, as well as Theo’s new Large-Stadium Chamber™. The Large-Stadium Chamber™ is a technologically advanced version of a traditional large chamber, combining True-Large Chamber sections with Medium Chamber sections for a focus and core that is incredible while maintaining the full, rich sound of a Vintage-True-Large-Chamber. The ‘Stadium Chamber’ name comes from its shape, which approximates the shape of a sports stadium. The LAKSHMI projects very well, but never sounds harsh or thin, just a big vintage tenor sound Dexter Gordon would be proud of. The LAKSHMI is my number 1 favorite mouthpiece! It is a liberating mouthpiece to play! It is like an old soul but with modern sensibilities. The intonation is laser beam accurate, the response is incredibly fast and the range of sound is nothing short of astounding. It has that indescribable magic and mojo… whatever you want to call it. Soul. Thanks, Theo!!! – Ian Hendrickson Smith (Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, Lady Gaga, Bob Dylan, U2, Amy Winehouse, and Ed Sheeran)The LAKSHMI Tenor lends itself well to a traditional Jazz taste but is at home in any style of playing, as it has very good projection.

We also get preferred shipping from our vendors as we are a small dealer and they send us one item at a time. Most of our larger competitors order large orders and that takes longer to fulfill from the manufacturers then with us. If you have any questions, please contact us.
