Saxophonist Marlon

– City Groove Band
“I found the perfect pieces for me I started playing on Theo’s mouthpieces.”

Testimonial

Theo Wanne is definitly staying ahead of the technology curve. He countinues to improve mouthpieces that many have thought was already perfect even better. His pieces have definitly enhanced my sound and make performing even more fun when I don’t have to think about if my horn is going to respond evry single time the same way. There are a lot of great mouthpieces out there but I didn’t feel I had found the perfect pieces for me until I started playing on Theo’s mouthpieces. I know have the consistency across each horn that I have wanted.
