Gary Smulyan’s Vintage Otto Link 8* Mouthpiece Played By Him For 35 Years!

Description

Hello, this is one of the most legendary baritone mouthpieces of all time. It is the 8* Vintage Florida Otto Link that Gary Smulyan has been playing for 35 years! Every recording of Gary’s for the last 35 years have been done on this beautiful mouthpiece. There was a metal baffle out in the mouthpiece many years ago by Glenn Johnson. The metal baffle can be seen in the photos, it is not a crack in the metal, that is where the baffle begins. It was refaced by Ralph Morgan for Gary after many years of playing, and then it was refaced again by Marantz. Gary began using a different mouthpiece last year and has decided to sell this beautiful piece of jazz history. The mouthpiece still plays wonderfully and has a beautiful sound. This mouthpiece should go to a collector looking for an authentic piece of jazz history by the leading baritone saxophonist of the 21st century. Gary has signed a letter of authenticity which will be included in the sale. There are many photos of Gary playing this mouthpiece online that you can find. Thank you for looking.
