Re: Ridenour Homage

I received the Homage last week with 15 carved into the lower side of the mouthpiece. I played them with V12 3 1/2+ reeds. As far as sounds goes, it’s great. Nice warm, soft and pure sound. It’s like a much higher quality M13 Lyre for those familiar with that piece. The sound is focused as is usual of small tip opening mouthpieces. The best thing about it easily is the upper register. The notes float out perfectly with just the right amount of resistance with nothing shrill about it at all. It is a bit unflexable for my taste but as far as classical playing goes most would find great success with it. I also prefer the articulation on my BD5. I did notice that even though in a practice room the Homage seems smaller, it seemed to project really well in a larger hall. All in all, a solid mouthpiece.
