Theo Wanne Slant Signature 2 Tenor Sax Mouthpiece
Product Information
The new Theo Wanne™ Slant Sig Tenor Mouthpiece brings the best of vintage tenor mouthpiece designs to the future! Theo Wanne is the world's foremost expert on vintage sax mouthpieces and he understands WHY an Otto Link sounds great. So, Theo utilized the best design principles from the first Slant Signature models in the early 1950s through the Early Babbitt models in the 1970s to make the new Theo Wanne™ Slant Sig Tenor Mouthpiece. It is the ultimate vintage Slant Sig Link.The Slant Sig mouthpiece is the perfect mouthpiece for students and pros alike, allowing the player to get the 'classic' tenor sound AND be fully expressive.
The Slant sig is very versatile and is suitable for many types of playing but of course its best used in a jazz setting. Due to the special Fiberrod material it has an immediate tone with clarity and the large chamber design adds warmth and depth.
The most expressive and most projecting Slant Signature Otto Link sound you've ever heard!
For reference we've found the following ligs work nicely on these Slant Sig models: Rovner HR Tenor Light or Dark, Rovner HR Platinum, Vandoren HR MO and the Wood Stone Selmer Fit HR.

Theo Wanne Slant Signature 2 Tenor Sax Mouthpiece Reviews
An all round bright mouthpiece. Can tame it for background jazz or push it for pop/rock. Sits in between a Gaia and Durga. Intonation is great as well.
I would highly recommend this mouthpiece for jazz. The 7* is nice a punchy and easy to blow. You can also subtone very easily. Okay nicely in tune throughout the register.
I had a lot of hesitation before spending so much money on a mouthpiece but I have to say it was worth it. It's going to take a little time and practice to get the most out of it but I've already noticed the difference in the very low and very high registers - much more consistency and control.
Plays very well through the whole register with considerable punch at the top end for an ebonite open bore piece. Tone quality is particularly good in the lower register making subtones very straightforward. A must-try for the price range.
Very responsive tenor mouthpiece with a big warm vibrant sound. My only criticism is that mouthpieces at this level should come with their own ligature. Nick at Dawkes was very helpful in recommending suitable ligatures.
