I totally disagree with @Horrorlink! Michael gave such a thorough explanation of these mouthpieces both verbally and in performance. His demonstration really helped me hear and understand what these mouthpieces are capable of in all genres - something you normally don't get in mouthpiece reviews. I don't want to have to change out my mouthpiece every time I play a different genre. This review was very convincing. I'll be saving my money for both of these mouthpieces! Bravissimo! Thank you, Michael from a Indiana University Bloomington and University of North Texas grad!
Anyone would think Horrorlink was strapped in with eyes pegged open like A Clockwork Orange. UA-cam videos can be terminated instantly. I'm like you though, I also love hearing people's anecdotes and reminiscences.
So so awesome. Wow. Love it Sir
Very interesting looking alto sax. Especially the neck. What brands are they?
No insults intended to 1st graders because that is where they’re at in their journey to maturity, but whoah! There are a lot of 1st grade comments here! I guess UA-cam must be for more mature audiences? Those who have an attention span that is longer than that of a goldfish? Children, time to go back to Tik Tok. You’re not quite at the level of UA-cam yet!
I for one appreciate the demonstrations after the talk and I can’t believe Michael Stricklin’s sound! Both on the alto and tenor. For the last three years of playing sax I’ve been looking for a player whose sound I love and who I want to develop my sound concept after. While there are many great players out there with great sounds I find they stick to a narrow-banded genre swing that I often can’t get into and have a hard time listening to. What I appreciate about Michael is his ability to sound great in any genre and since I like anything from the big-band sound to early jazz, funk, r&b, rock and even sax based electronic music it’s inspiring to find someone that sounds great in any style. I’ve never heard of J.J. Babbitt mouthpieces but to have a mouthpiece that is so flexible has got my curiosity piqued.
Now to any Tik Tok watcher who made it this far, congratulations! Maybe you can start exploring UA-cam now!
Fantastic demonstration of flexibility, skill, and wisdom.
Great communicator!
Thanks for the info.
Quel que doit le bec où l'instrument seul compte le musicien et son état d'esprit.
Bravo monsieur

What is the tip opening that you used on the alto sax?
It's a #2😮😮
What reed on alto sax?
All the TikTok people complaining because a video is longer than 1-2 minutes…. 😂
cat is cool... whoever doesn't have time to listen should self reflect...
A LOT of talking and not saying very much. Your playing reflects that.
All the relevant information here could have been condensed into 1-2 minutes, thanks for the time waste.
Next time get someone that has his speech prepared and doesn't kill time by doodlin around and telling anecdotal stories.
If this sets you off, wait till I release the full edit 🤯
@paigesmusic6174 you sound wonderful! 😊
@@paigesmusic6174 I doubt @Horrorlink will be back. Me neither. Yep, clearly a great saxophonist but too much playing and not enough solid advice.
we'll miss you both@@unclemick-synths
Stick with Tic Toc until you mature a bit. I won’t bet the house on it.
