Guardala Mouthpiece with Ligature, Cap
FATBOY mouthpieces are fatter than the original Guardala’s. The elliptical shape allows the mouthpiece to have a larger size, with a lesser increase of weight. The resulting size/weight ratio is the only way of producing a “BALANCED SOUND” with a mouthpiece larger than the original Dave Guardala Mouthpiece.
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 is name. This is our middle of the road mouthpiece.
