I've been playing a Selmer Mark VI tenor sax since January and haven't been
able to find a suitable mouthpiece. I am a clarinet player who started
playing alto saxophone about 4 years ago. I use a Beechler mouthpiece on my
Yamaha alto that I love.

I've tried several different mouthpieces on the tenor, some of which caused
intonation problems for me. Does anyone have suggestions for jazz
mouthpieces that will be compatible with this tenor? I'm very picky about
tone. For several months I "settled" on a metal Selmer level air mouthpiece
but it doesn't give me the tone I'm looking for. Christy Erickson
