Why change what works?
I have tried many expensive mouthpieces over the years, but I always come back to the Yamaha 4C for practice sessions. It never fails to produce a good sound regardless of the reed strength I'm using.

The Gold Standard for Students
This is the mouthpiece that came with my student sax, but I kept it even after upgrading my horn. It offers incredible consistency and makes hitting high notes much easier for beginners. Highly recommended for anyone starting their journey.

Durable and Reliable
I've dropped this mouthpiece twice (oops!) and it still plays perfectly. The ebonite material seems very durable. The ligature included is basic but holds the reed securely. Great value for the price.

Perfect for Jazz and Classical
Versatile is an understatement. I use this for both my high school jazz band and classical recitals. It responds quickly and produces a clear, centered sound without being too bright or too dark.

Good upgrade from stock
Bought this to replace the mouthpiece on my rented saxophone. The difference in sound quality was immediate. My teacher noticed the improvement right away. Only giving 4 stars because the cap fits a bit loosely.

Great tone, slightly resistant
I switched from a generic brand to this Yamaha 4C. The tone is much warmer and more focused. It feels a bit more resistant than what I was used to, but that actually helps with intonation control. Solid choice.
Q: Is a ligature included in the box?
A: Yes, this package includes a standard metal ligature and a plastic protective cap.
Q: Can I use this for soprano sax?
A: No, this is sized for Alto Sax. Soprano saxophones require a significantly smaller mouthpiece, such as the Yamaha SS-4C.
Q: How do I clean the ebonite material safely?
A: Use lukewarm water and mild soap. Avoid hot water or harsh chemicals, as extreme temperatures can warp the ebonite material over time.
Q: What reed strength works best with this tip opening?
A: The 4C tip opening pairs well with reed strengths ranging from 2.0 to 3.0, depending on your embouchure strength and personal preference.
Q: Does this mouthpiece fit a Tenor Saxophone?
A: No, the AS-4C model is specifically designed for Eb Alto Saxophones. For Tenor Saxophones, please look for the TS-4C model.
