Description
THE STANDARD TENOR MOUTHPIECE
The Optimum mouthpiece features a completely redesigned structure, starting from the exterior and extending inward. From its distinctively shaped form reminiscent of vintage mouthpieces to its comfortably designed beak and meticulously crafted facing, rails, and table, the Optimum series is engineered for enhanced freedom of blowing and responsiveness. Offering precise articulation and complete control across all dynamic ranges, the Optimum mouthpieces also maintain Vandoren's hallmark of precise intonation.
