Best budget metal mouthpiece
I've tried several metal mouthpieces in this price range, and the Medway stands out. The intonation is stable, and the soldering on the rail is clean. A fantastic upgrade from plastic.

Excellent projection for the price
I bought this for my alto sax and was immediately impressed by the bright tone. It cuts through the band mix perfectly without requiring excessive air support. Great value for a metal mouthpiece.

Solid performer on stage
Used this for a weekend gig series and it performed flawlessly. The volume is impressive, though beginners might find it a bit hard to control initially. Overall, very satisfied.

Perfect for tenor sax
Works beautifully on my tenor. The response is quick across all registers, and the included ligature holds the reed securely. Highly recommend for players looking for a brighter sound.

Too bright for classical playing
While the craftsmanship is good, the tone is definitely too bright for classical repertoire. It's clearly designed for jazz or pop. If you need a warm, round sound, look elsewhere.

Good quality, slightly stiff at first
The build quality is solid and the gold plating looks premium. It took me a few days to adjust to the high baffle, but now I love the edgy sound it produces for funk gigs.
Q: Is this suitable for a beginner student?
A: While durable, metal mouthpieces with a high baffle can be challenging for absolute beginners to control. We recommend it for intermediate players or those specifically seeking a bright jazz tone.
Q: What is the return policy if the tip opening is too large for me?
A: We offer a 30-day return policy for unused items in original packaging. Please note that hygiene reasons prevent returns on mouthpieces that have been played without a sterilization barrier.
Q: How does the gold plating hold up over time?
A: The gold plating is durable under normal playing conditions. However, avoid using abrasive cleaning cloths or harsh chemicals to maintain the finish and prevent tarnishing.
Q: Can I use this on a C melody saxophone?
A: No, this mouthpiece is designed specifically for Alto (Eb), Soprano (Bb), and Tenor (Bb) saxophones. It will not fit a C melody saxophone correctly.
Q: Does this mouthpiece come with a ligature and cap?
A: Yes, the package includes a metal ligature, a protective plastic cap, and one starter reed.
