## Overview

The Rico Graftonite Alto Sax Mouthpiece B5 offers a professional-grade playing experience with a .080" tip opening and 20mm facing length.

Available in three tone chambers (A, B, C) to tailor your sound from dark concert tones to bright jazz edges, this mouthpiece is a top choice for versatile alto saxophonists seeking reliable projection and tonal clarity.

## Description

An absolutely amazing jazz piece for the price. The Rico Royal Graftonite pieces offer great projection and an even sound at a most ,. Tone Chamber Style (A, B, or C): The tone chamber of a mouthpiece is the inside area of the mouthpiece. The size and shape of the tone chamber will change the tone quality of the instrument. With the Rico Royal mouthpieces, an "A" tone chamber will give a dark sound which is best suited for concert work, a "B" tone chamber will give a little more brilliance (better for using with most bands), and a "C" tone chamber will give a lot more brilliance and edge which is great for rock and jazz bands.FACINGS Facing (3, 5, or 7): The facing is determined by the distance from the tip of the reed to where it first touches the mouthpiece. The bigger the facing number, the farther back the reed goes before actually touching the mouthpiece. Changing the facing of the mouthpiece will generally change the volume of the instrument. With a shorter facing (3), less of the reed is vibrating, so the instrument will tend to be quieter, with a longer facing (7), more of the reed is vibrating, so the instrument will tend to be louder.

Review: Good - Medium sound
Review: lutere :P - Mouthpiece is amazing but is available at a much lower price at furtados. I bought if from furtados in 2200 rupees. Please dont get fooled by paying 600 Rs extra.
