As a result, I bought berg larsen 80/2 sms, it's an interesting mouthpiece, soft sound. I'm thinking of trying 80/1 M, maybe it will give a sound like Ace Cannon.
Great comparison: I thought the straight was better. I always preferred the curved, until I got a straight and had it rebuilt. It is my favorite now

@@TheHodges0633 if you can find a shop that sells vintage mouthpieces , take your horn and test some untill you find that vintage sound that appeals to your ear for the Hodges sound .. a vintage sound comes more from your mouthpiece than your horn
Shit, that's damn good. One of my main inspirations is Johnny Hodges... I like that. Comparing the two: Your tone seems brighter and his seems much more mellow and less technical but more focused on melodic-based movement kept in mind, but that's Hodges anyways and just my take. I like your sound. I say continue on in your own direction, now.
I don’t speak Japanese… Did Johnny play the horn that is in the KZbin-video Johnny Hodges‘ Alto Sax?

Hello. My alto is the same type of JH's Alto. The serial number of JH's alto was 2551A. My alto is 2542A. But almost the same appearance.

This is sms 80/2 or...? Great sound! I was thinking of buying a Berg Larsen to make a sound like Johnny Hodges, but I don't know what size, what camera. Thanks どのモデルがBerg Larsenであるか教えてください。 どんなカメラ、サイズ? 素晴らしいサウンド! 私はその音のためのマウスピースを買うことを考えていた。

kzbin.info/www/bejne/nXnaiaV_lJasbac JohnnyHodges was using the Berg Larsen for most of his career. I have his mouthpiece engraved his name. This is about 0.078inch opening. But this is customized , different from the original appearance.

@@TheHodges0633 Thank you sharing this. Wow, I need to find one of these myself but they seem hard to find. I happen to be the fresh owner of an similar vintage 12M of somewhere around '69 if I am right. An old beaten up school workhorse as they call it. Not a beauty but it has a wonderful tone. These old style hard rubber mouthpieces are a great match wih the Conns. I love the wonderful warm tone you get. And still with a nice edge to it.
