Gaia 2 Alto Saxophone Mouthpiece, Hard Rubber 7
This product is no longer available.
The GAIA 2 alto is designed with the classic Meyer design in mind. HOWEVER no limitations were put on the design, so it simply does everything better! It has an optimized classic baffle and includes a True Large Chamber for a breadth of sound surpassing all the Meyer clones on the market. Once you spend some time on it, you will find a dynamic range and flexibility not possible in other mouthpieces.
Large chambers have been widely explored in the history of tenor mouthpieces, but very little has been done with alto mouthpieces. The GAIA 2 Alto mouthpiece opens up a whole new world for the alto saxophone. Not only is the DESIGN revolutionary, but it uses state of the art manufacturing and premium materials so that design is made right! The GAIA 2 has evolved from the GAIA 1 with an even more core and body to the sound.

Love this mouthpiece. Just picked it up yesterday. The tone is so warm overall no matter how hard you're pushing it. I just find it to be a really versatile mouthpiece with a sound that I like a whole lot.
Not the biggest fan of the ligature, still using it but may just go put my rovner on it. It's just a little fiddly.
Compared it to three other mouthpieces when I went in and though the price was pretty steep on it I really wanted that warm sound.
