  • Just about perfect!
Style: Baritone Size: M7
I play baritone, alto and just recently also soprano saxes and flute. I have a Selmer baritone from the 70’s, apparently a Mk. 6, but with a Mk. 7 serial number. I’ve been rotating my Selmer S80-D, Otto Link 6 and Mayer 7, which were purchased also in the 70’s (I don’t know if they have changed since). Before investing significantly in a new mp, I wanted to try this, the Rico metalite M7. Primarily because I was interested in high baffle mouthpieces. I was amazed, period. First it is extremely easy to blow (I’m playing the Vandoren Java No 3 reeds (red box). The second outstanding feature is the ability to play he whole range of the instrument with surprising ease, without losing anything from the sound. The third great feature is the dynamic range of this mp. You can play it very quietly or very loudly with the same nice touch. The only thing I’m not completely satisfied is the timbre, at least yet. I’m not really sure of this, because you can’t really hear yourself correctly. I need to record the sound to understand it fully. All in all, a fantastic mouthpiece for the price. Absolutely recommendable! PS. Played it with Rico 2.5 reed. Now the sound was absolutely great. I.e. just look for reeds that give you the sound you want. The mp is fine. ... show more

  • Great inexpensive mouthpiece for blues/rock settings
Style: Alto Size: M7
This is a great mouthpiece for blues or rock band settings. I play mine routinely in those bands and have no complaints. Tone is very bright. As others have mentioned, it's pretty easy to reach altissimo notes with the Metalite. For the price it's worth picking one up just to hear what playing a "bright" mouthpiece is like. If you find the tone too simplistic, you haven't lost your shirt. And yes, it is loud. Looking at some of the other reviews, this mouthpiece is inappropriate for concert band or even jazz ensembles because it is so bright it will not blend with the rest of the group. ... show more

  • Good Jazz Mouthpiece
Style: Baritone Size: M7
For the price this is an amazing bari mouthpiece, especially for middle/high school students. I will say before I say anything else, this mouthpiece REQUIRES a TENOR LIGATURE. So make sure to pop one in your cart along with this if you don't already have one. Since it's a very bright mouthpiece that's great at projecting sound it may be more difficult for beginner players to control, but it's good practice. Overtone and altissimo is also way easier to accomplish on this mouthpiece compared to some other cheaper bari mouthpieces like the Yamaha 5c. This mouthpiece will make your sound pop, so I highly recommend it for jazz gigs, funk, rock, pop, but definitely nothing like a symphonic/orchestral setting as it tamber created by this mouthpiece just doesn't sound good in those settings. I will also recommend this mouthpiece to people who struggle to play loudly on bari due to not having great air support, since the mouthpiece is as narrow as a tenor mouthpiece it makes it way easier to play louder. ... show more

  • Um, The "Sheerness" Is Fine?
Style: Soprano Size: M7
I ordered this mouthpiece on Amazon to use on a Lazarro soprano I also bought on Amazon. It arrived very quickly and makes the horn sound and play a lot better. I haven't played Rico mouthpieces before, but saw many people online recommending it for the brightness and low cost. It allows me to get the high notes on the Lazarro soprano to play, which wasn't possible with the generic mouthpiece that came with the horn. I'm using it with a Rovner dark R1RVS soprano ligature, which fits it fine. On product features I gave it a 5 in the category of "value for money". Not sure why "Thickness" and "Sheerness" are suggested categories they asked me to rate, but I gave it a 3 for thickness and a 3 for sheerness, because... huh? Anyway, I like it fine. Mouthpieces are personal of course, everybody likes a different sound and response. This one has quite a high baffle, which I like. I bought the one with the M7 opening, using softer reeds and the sound on soprano is pretty decent, reedy and warm. It's a high quality piece at a really reasonable price. I don't really like the grey color, but I'm living with it. ... show more

  • A good contemporary sound, at a great price!
Style: Tenor Size: M7
I'd say that for the money this is a good mouthpiece. But in truth, at triple the price, it'd still be a good mouthpiece. That said, it is a high baffle mouthpiece, and they are notorious for issues in the lower range of the saxophone. And for some, they have too bright and cutting of a sound. It took a couple days work to find a reed that worked well with it, and ended up with a Vandoren Java Red. Ligature wise, the Rico H-Ligature is perfect for this mouthpiece, as you might expect. So the test...how does this mouthpiece play. Once you have the reed right, it plays wonderfully. Of course, I was looking for a brighter sound. and this gives you that. I was coming from playing an Otto Link metal mouthpiece, and this 7M Metalite out blows it. Funny, how after spending hundreds of dollars on mouthpieces, it is the best priced one of the bunch that wins out in the end. This may not be right for all players, it can be hard to control, but if you want a good contemporary sound this can give you that. You just may have to work with it. The more you play it, the better it gets. This is an update to the earlier review...I thought I'd try the M9 version of this mouthpiece, but was a little wary because of the wider opening and longer facing. But wow, what a difference. I found this M9 version a lot easier to play, and more responsive, especially in the lower register, where the M7 was lacking. The M9 version is the ONE to go with for this mouthpiece. ... show more

  • The sax is fine but these mouthpieces are "garbage" (his words)
Style: Baritone Size: M9
This mouthpiece seems to have a few flaws in the design. I took my son's bari to a pro to have it looked at. The sax is fine but these mouthpieces are "garbage" (his words). He said that he might be able to file them and re-shape some parts of them to make them passable but what musician wants to be "passable". It just isn't worth it even as cheap as they are. I spent a few more dollars and got a Yamaha... so much better. The Rico's will most likely sit in a drawer. ... show more

  • Excellent mouthpiece but not what I was looking for
Style: Baritone Size: M7
I'd heard that these are amazing, Inexpensive jazz pieces. Bari isn’t my primary sax though and while it was good, I decided I just didn’t need it.
