The video of Changing pressure plate is very useful. I wish I saw it when I bought TW mouthpiece 2 years ago. I wish that there will be a video for how to place a mouthpiece pad. I cannot place it inside the pad hole perfectly.

The Gaya metal 8 is my favorite mouthpiece, easy to blow, the sound of this mouthpiece is fantastic, definitely the best mouthpiece on the planet.

The only thing I love more than a Theo Wanne mouthpiece is working with Theo's incredible team. There customer service and attention to detail is unmatched in the modern mouthpiece game. My only complaint is that I didn't start playing their mouthpieces sooner.

I have played a Durga 4 HR 8 Alto for several years and have been very pleased with the sound. But... I was reading Theo's comments on the Durga 5 HR. "It does everything that the 4 does only better". Hmm.... I thought I should try it and because of the trial period I knew I could return it. I am so pleased to say that Theo was 100% correct. I am so pleased with the Durga 5 HR 8. It really does everything better. Thank you Theo.

Друг привёз из Америки Durga 5 10 (.096") два года назад. Я, в основном альтист. Основной мундштук у меня эбонитовый Berg Larsen 110/1 M. Захотелось метала))) Потестить в Москве Theo Wanne не где...поэтому заказал самый большой. Всё очень понравилось в среднем и нижнем регистрах. А в верху контролируется тяжеловато. Нужно "качать " мышцы))) , не смотря на то , что пасть моего Berg L ещё больше. И в концертной работе я пока ему не очень доверяю. Срывается временами на кикс в 3й октаве! Но деваться некуда))) Будем его приручать! Купил за 750$, а сейчас цена 675$, что очень обидно. Ну да ладно. Если бы была возможность зайти в магазин Theo Wanne и выбрать - уверен, нашёл бы мундштук своей мечты 100%! Но , такое сейчас время((( Theo Wanne - Bravo!!!

After a few months of play, I'm happy with this. It plays with little resistance, it's easy to play in tune, and it adapts to a wide range of lesson material. (I'm re-beginning sax after years off, so my embouchure is starting over.) I have a #4 opening and consider it my primary, all-rounder mouthpiece. I had an issue with the brass collar slipping off. I queried TW about it and got an immediate reply. They said they're now gluing them in place and they offered to reattach the ring for me. Or, I could do it with a few drops of Goop. I did it myself and no regrets. Works flawlessly. Thanks..!

The best saxophone mouthpieces in the world. Never had a bad experience with them. I had a few alto mouthpieces and now new tenor Durga and Ambika mouthpiece. Amazing sound :)

I played on the otto link, and was looking for a better mouthpiece, because I didn’t like the otto link for its rough sound.. I studied a lot of information, and I had a choice of theo wanne or jody jazz, and of course I bought theo wanne Ambika3 7* because theo wanne took care of details that bring more comfort to the musician, I mean the silicone pad is recessed and does not cause discomfort, the ligature is always in the right position, etc., Ambika3 is my mouthpiece for everyday playing... I liked everything about it... very much warm and soft sound. It sounds great throughout the entire range of the saxophone, especially at the lower end. I've been playing Ambika3 for 2 years, and I'm increasingly convinced that the right choice was made... now I already have Brahama7* and Gaia4 7 from Theo Wanne. All of them is amazing....
