The JodyJazz Clarinet Mouthpiece is available in facings #4 - #8 in Classic Black and Ruby Red for $127.00 with spoiler or $109.00 without. The JodyJazz Clarinet Mouthpiece come with a Deluxe Rovner (Dark) Ligature and Cap and a Deluxe Mouthpiece Pouch.

The JodyJazz Clarinet Mouthpiece has a deep, dark, woody clarinet sound. A very centered sound is produced from this mouthpiece with excellent projection. Intonation is flawless throughout the range of the clarinet. The JodyJazz Clarinet Mouthpiece is perfect for band, orchestra and classical music settings and in the more open facings (6-8) it is the best Jazz Clarinet Mouthpiece that I have ever played. With this mouthpiece I find that players can achieve “their” sound with a reed one half strength less than they usually use.

JodyJazz Clarinet Mouthpieces are made of a proprietary polycarbonate alloy with a synthetic rubber mix– which is a high tech, expensive material. This is not like “ABS” plastic or any other kind of plastic material currently used for clarinet and saxophone mouthpieces. In fact the material that makes the JodyJazz Classic mouthpiece is six times more expensive than that used in other plastic mouthpieces. The formula to our material, which is highly guarded secret, contains a certain amount of synthetic rubber which is a form of plastic that can be molded into parts that feel just like rubber. Because of the addition of the synthetic rubber, JodyJazz Classic Mouthpieces, produce the warm overtones that hard rubber mouthpieces can produce while allowing us to use the manufacturing process know as precision injection molding. Besides being able to flawlessly produce the intricate forms and curves of a clarinet or saxophone mouthpiece, injection molding allows us to achieve uniform cooling. As each mouthpiece is molded it is dropped into a huge vat of cool water insuring that each mouthpiece cools at the same rate. Cooling is critical in this type of manufacturing as well as in the manufacturing of hard rubber mouthpieces because if cooling occurs at different temperatures than the mouthpieces will have slightly different dimensions.
