THE VINTAGE MEYER ALTO MOUTHPIECE SLAYER….FINALLY.
Tired of all the Meyer Bros copies in the marketplace? Still chasing that vibe and coming up empty time after time? You know, you’re getting basically the same thing from dozens and dozens of “mouthpiece makers” with their different names on them. What a complete farce! Sure, Meyer made some very good playing alto pieces, but there’s no reason to chase that anymore. Prices are absolutely absurd, and you’re lucky to find one that plays like you are hoping it will. Even then, you may be disappointed.
Here at 10MFAN Saxophone Mouthpieces, I’m all about making original designs that outplay the same category vintage pieces and all their copies in the marketplace. We use the finest German bar stock hard rubber made, and each piece is hand finished one at a time, so they play perfectly, by the great Eric Falcon. Every piece is a stellar player.
Here is Jay Thomas enjoying his 10mfan Daddy-O alto mouthpiece in a 6 tip opening. He was playing a vintage Meyer bros alto before this. He is using a vintage Conn alto and a Red box Java reed.
Bye bye to those days of alto players looking at the expensive Meyers as the top of the alto list. This Daddy-O model, and my Showboat model simply outplay them for me, and are more fun to play, and more versatile. Robert Anchipolovsky, who is one of the finest alto players in the world, has already made the switch to my Daddy-O alto. He describes it as “perfect”.
No-one gets paid to play or say nice things about my mouthpieces…they use them because they want to. They speak highly of them because thats how they honestly feel. Many players now are making the switch off their Meyers and many different model vintage pieces for my alto mouthpieces. Over 200 sold direct to players in just over 2 months…for good reason.
Jay is having tons of fun with this piece and said he’d be listing some live videos from gigs, as he has them.

The ***NEW*** SHOWTIME hr tenor —-Vintage Early Babbitt Link SLAYER!
My philosophy has always been to make better designs, and this is one of my finest creations.
For all you HR Link guys, I have made a modern design original mouthpiece that gets that Link thing and offers way more available power, volume, better altissimo, better tuning, clearer articulation, with all that richness and body….HERE IT IS!
The long-awaited 10mfan “Showtime” hard rubber tenor mouthpiece.
This is the modern answer for players looking for that Otto Link Early Babbitt hr straight ahead power piece…but want an original modern design that gets those vibes and plays even better than those vintage pieces! No copy pieces needed, I am only interested in making better original designs! It is not an Otto Link blow, it is a 10MFAN blow, which I prefer.
We have absolutely killed it here.
This piece takes it to a whole new level and outplays the Slant and Early babbitt copy pieces out there.
This is the perfect fit for my 2nd Category focussed mouthpiece. The Robusto is my 2nd Category spread mouthpiece and I now have the perfect piece for a focussed option, like I have with my other categories.
This piece is an incredible all-around mouthpiece that can do it all. My mouthpiece craftsman called me, and was BLOWN AWAY!
This IS the answer for the modern guys looking for that classic sounding powerhouse piece.
The sound has so many options…it can be warm, mellow, full-bodied, powerful, brighter, punchier, etc. It just does it all. Incredible altissimo.
Not a Category 3 piece, but can easily be used for jazz, R&B, funk, etc.
Its another INCREDIBLY SPECIAL unique original design.
This is a real treat, and I am thrilled to finally be able to announce orders starting TODAY!!!
I can start getting orders out in about 2 weeks from when you order.
Sadly, the mouthpiece world is so over-full of the same vintage mouthpiece copies being released by tons of different makers, with different names on them. (Slants, EB’s, Resos, Floridas, Double Rings, Meyer Bros altos, Soloist sops, Guardalas, Bergs, etc…).
I want MORE options for my clients in all original designs.
