Description
“The Showboat” Alto Saxophone Mouthpiece:
The Showboat is an Alto Mouthpiece that pays homage to Phil Woods and his album “Live from the Showboat”.
Great powerhouse mouthpiece that combines classic Phil Woods with a modern power and punch. More cut, power, more free blowing, and more brilliance to the sound than the 10mfan Daddy-O model. It takes it to the next level, for those that want that. Think 60s, 70s, and 80s Phil Woods, with more brights and pop available, if you need that. Great for Jazz and well-suited to contemporary playing too! Such a fantastic lead alto mouthpiece sound. More punch and highs available in the Showboat model than in the Daddy-O. It features a shorter and higher baffle compared to the Daddy-O. It’s got all the volume anyone would ever need, but can also be played to a whisper. The sound is thick and full throughout.
As of December 2023, 10mfan has updated the amount of tip openings that he is offering on his mouthpieces. Once we have sold our last SHOWBOAT in an 8, we will not be able to get another one in.
