Details

Roll Over Baffle
This baffle design gives the BURNIN' mouthpiece power, projection, and a degree of brightness for a sound that stands out when you want it to.

Large Chamber
The deep chamber balances out the steep baffle giving the BURNIN' mouthpiece a lush warmth and sonic depth. This combination creates a complex and beautiful tone.

Straight Side Walls
Free blowing and focused sound with lots of core. Made in USA. Manufactured in Savannah, Georgia by Jody Jazz.

Hand Finished
Expert hand-finishing combined with state-of-the-art CNC machining results in the highest quality and most consistent mouthpieces available anywhere.

Premium Hard Rubber
Genuine proprietary Jody Jazz hard rubber for the look, feel, and sound of great vintage mouthpieces.

Medium Facing Curve
Reed friendly and easy to play. Each of the 3 available tip openings (6,7,8) were meticulously designed and all play like champs! Thin Tip and Side Rails. The precision and attention of detail to these elements are key to any great playing mouthpiece.

Matte Finish Exterior
Along with the finely sculpted and hand-painted logo, the BURNIN' mouthpiece comes in a beautiful matte finish.

Ligature Sizing

The Burnin' mouthpiece is a slim hard rubber size, and in this respect most standard-sized tenor ligatures will fit, such as the Rovner "2R" and BG "L13", 

If you want to order a Jody Jazz Power Ring for your Burnin' mouthpiece you require the "HRB1" size. 

Staff Review

It took me literally no time to adjust to this mouthpiece - it worked perfectly for me straight away!  And I say this as a non-bari player.  The only time I get time on the bari is when I'm doing mouthpiece reviews or gearing up for a video review; in this sense I really need something that just plays fluidly and with a great tone, and that's precisely what this piece delivers on.

The large chamber gives a hugely satisfying warm core, and yet it's so easy to make the sound pop whenever you want it to.  It also has a kind of sizzly-reedy quality when playing with more subtlety.  Jody and Jay have done everything they can to ensure this mouthpiece is a free-blowing as possible, and for the baritone sax, this is essential as we have enough to deal with already!  I'm sure factors such as the thin side rails and the precise facing curve have a bearing on this.  Another stellar job to add to the series of Burnin' pieces.
