Product ID: ISI13258BabbittAltoTC
This is a lot of 3 vintage mouthpieces for the alto sax.
The first is a vintage plastic Babbitt Elkhart, Indiana mouthpiece. The piece shows only very minor surface scratching and no major wear of note. The facing looks great and tip measures .072”, or comparable to a modern # 5.
The second is an older hard rubber Woodwind Co New York “Steel Ebonite” mouthpiece for the alto sax. The piece is table stamped a G5* and measures .060”. There are some tiny nicks around the tip rail and teeth scratching on the beak.
The final piece is a classic hard rubber Yanagisawa mouthpiece. It too shows a fair amount of scratching around its body, and the inside of the piece is quite dirty, and good use a thorough cleaning. The facing looks good though, with no major wear, and tip measures .065”.
