The battle of the New York Meyer jazz alto mouthpiece!?!? Connoisseur, Marantz, Morgan, Meyer NY

[@zacksax]

I was surprised that I liked the Marantz the best, cause I've never heard of those, but it sounds killer to me. Nice video brother.

@@zacksax thanks, Zack! Matt is a really killer player and is actually from Dallas. His dad, now retired, was one of the most famous jazz educators in the state!

Now this is the content I love. Good stuff bro

[@mpcguy]

You sound great on all of them ! 😊

[@stangetz534]

the old meyers feel like they have have a soft edge to them. surprised by how much the marantz sounded the same as the old meyer!

[@claypufahl6074]

Nice comparison! I think they are all in the same tonal ballpark, I’m curious which you prefer for different settings as well as the feedback you get from each mpc? (As in, which is easiest to play, more or less resistant, etc). I’ve found my best match in an alto mpc that I like in terms of ease of blowing resistance, tone and ability to carry over a section in an Aizen jazzmaster mark II, fwiw.

[@AcevedoDMA]

The Meyer NY USA is my favorite to play live, particularly with big band. The Marantz has the most warmth of tone and flexibility of tone. If I played small group acoustic I would like to use this the most. Realistically I use the vintage Meyer for everything. It doesn’t have as many tonal options, but for what it does, I think it does it the best.

All sound great, but the Marantz had the warmth and projection. Too bad he doesn't make the Bros model anymore.. I've been trying to find one to purchase. Great review!!!!

[@AcevedoDMA]

Matt always improves on his craft. I bet his current offering today is just as good or better.

[@pbnj4lyfe298]

Yes, he does and It's a great mp, don't get me wrong, I played on one. But the bros has a fullness that the newer model lacks (IMHO). I've posted on SOTW in the wanted section but no luck as of yet. No hurry, my main is a vintage Meyer usa, but always regretted selling the marantz bros. Thank you for responding!

[@pbnj4lyfe298]

If you ever consider selling you bros, let me know, I'm definitely interested.

[@AcevedoDMA]

@@pbnj4lyfe298, hey, are you still interested?

[@pbnj4lyfe298]

@@AcevedoDMA Yes sir, I'm still interested!

BEST morgan

meyer ny seemed warmest

[@XavierJordanMusic]

All were amazing except the new meyer. It lacked the depth and projection. The Matt Marantz piece was sooooo close to the original meyer; I had no idea. The Marantz definitely has the upper hand
