Yamaha4C Soprano Saxophone Mouthpiece, Standard Series

The Yamaha 4C was invented about the same time Yamaha produced the YAS21 and related lines, around 50 years ago. It was designed to be easy to play for beginners, but also to produce a rich tone. At the time it outperformed all of the mouthpieces being used on their competitor's beginner horns. Some of the competition has caught up, but it's still a great place to start if, say, you're going from Alto to Soprano. Obviously, there are "pro" mouthpieces that will sound better once you've adapted to the instrument, but they cost a lot more, and you won't really know which "pro" mouthpiece you'll need when you're staring out on a new horn. So, very good for what it is. Hopefully it will work well enough for you to stick with the horn until you need a better mouthpiece.

The Yamaha 4C mouthpiece was strongly recommended to me because the reviewer from Dawkes Music said it produces a very rich tone, and he’s absolutely right!! It works a treat for my clarinet, and now my soprano saxophone has a much richer tone too!! It sounds the best it ever has, and I’m absolutely delighted!! Thank you so much Amazon!!

Acheter pour le sax de mon fils 7ans, il m'a été conseillé par son prof. Rien à redire. Mon fils a l'air de prendre plus de plaisir avec.

Tenia la boquilla original del saxo y sufría bastante para poder sonar bien, con esta yamaha he notado un cambio total, es perfecta y el sonido sale mucho mejor.

I really enjoy my Mouthpiece, very pleased indeed. WELL MADE, WELL WORTH THE MONEY.
