The great Link metal mouthpiece known by all sax players as one of the bible mouthpieces for any saxophonist. The Link has a large chamber with a longish facing. It will produce a full dark sound, perhaps more suited for a vintage sound rather than contemporary sound.

Getting used to it. I really like it.
Almost too bright at first but after a few hours of "playing" with the sound (and maybe trying few ligatures), you'll discover its qualities. With my FL Ultimate ligature - a bit too bright and the leather ligature took the edge off the sound so I even settled on the original D'Addario ligature which came with the mouthpiece. For those looking for more powerful, bright and edgy sound - excellent choice!
This is my third Otto Link mouthpiece Soprano, alto and tenor. This one was for my alto and it place great as I was expecting it to. Small criticism is that Otto Link do not lubricate the ligature screw and if you use it dry it can twist the reed on the table of the mouthpiece. Lubricating the screw does gives a betterclamping force.
A great mouthpiece, unlike some metal mouthpieces for Alto, this one doesn't sound too bright and sharp. Tone can be punchy when required, but can also deliver a mellower sound.
