NEW MODELL “ T R A N E “

Chamber Design by Nadir Ibrahimoglu for the ultimate Sound of the 50’s and 60’s

 only HANDMADE by Nadir Ibrahimoglu

TRANE: This new Model is designed by Nadir Ibrahimoglu for the vintage sound. Trane has now the darkest sound of all Guardalas. It has tip opening 7* (106) a very large bore and a very small baffle. This mouthpiece combinates the “Florida” sound with the modern design of the Guardala Mouthpieces. Trane is for players who prefer the darkest sound with easy playing.

New Crescent & Crescent: Crescent model was designed with the “Coltrane” sound in mind. The sound of this mouthpiece is reminiscent of the John Coltrane album “Crescent” circa 1963. It features a slightly smaller tip opening (106) than other models. It had a large bore and a slight baffle. End of 80ies Dave designed for PMS a Crescent model with a little larger bore for the dark Bebop sound. This New Crescent model should be used by those players who prefer a dark sound.

BM (B.Marsalis)(available only Handmade): An exact replica of the mouthpiece played by Brandford Marsalis, it has a large bore / chamber and a moderate baffle. It’s ideal for playing mainstream Jazz with the “harder” sound Brandford is known for.

MB (M.Brecker Mark I) (available only Handmade): This model is the exact replica of the mouthpiece that Michael Brecker used. This model incorporates a moderately high baffle with a large bore. It is less bright than the Studio Model but brighter than the Traditional Model. It should be used for the Mainstream Jazz. Tip opening 115” (8*).

MB II: This model is a hybrid of the Studio and the original Brecker model. This mouthpiece has the high baffle of the Studio model with the large bore of the original Brecker model. This gives you increased volume and brightness with greater ease of playing. It is great for Contemporary/Pop, Rock and Jazz. The tip opening is 114 (thousandths of an inch).

The Studio: (#116”)This is the third brightest of the Tenor models. It has tremendous volume with unexcelled resonance and a full and balanced frequency response. This model incorporates a high baffle with a medium bore. The sound of this model is clearly demonstrated by Michael Brecker in the period 1979-1982 ( Brecker Brother´s Band ). The Studio can be used for all types of music a “ Studio Man“ would encounter, from Fusion to Swing, hence ist name. This is our middle of the road mouthpiece.

The King/R&B: This is the second brightest and compact of the Tenor models. It is patterned after the sound of King Curtis - a combination of the Detroit & Texas sound. This mouthpiece incorporates a high baffle and a small chamber. This mouthpiece can be used for the same types of Music as the SuperKing/R&B. For players who are acquainted with high baffle small bore mouthpieces, it can be used for Mainstream BeBop, Jazz and Contemporary/Pop. Tip opening is 116-118

The SuperKing/R&B: This mouthpiece is The King/R&B with a higher baffle. The chamber and the bore are altered to make a better match with the higher baffle. It should be used when the demands for brightness and power are extreme. It is ideal for Music that contains electric instruments that must be competed with, such as Fusion, and Rock’n Roll and Contemporary/Pop. This is the brightest of the Guardala mouthpieces. Tip opening is 119-120.
