Retro Revival Eric Marienthal Special Tenor Mouthpiece, Gold Plated. This is the opening 8, the same one Eric Marienthal uses. I purchased this used from Retro Revival (iReedMan’s) on eBay. I'm selling this one because I use a different finish. Apparently, there are no distributors currently, making this a rare model not often seen in Japan. Miho Terachi also uses this mouthpiece. It has a medium baffle, but it's easy to produce a large volume, and depending on how you play, you can add edge or create a soft sound, making it a very controllable model. ・The plating on the tip of the tooth guard is peeling, exposing the underlying silver plating. ・There are also ligature marks and scratches on the table. Based on my testing, it doesn't seem to affect the sound at all, but please refrain from purchasing if you are looking for a new or pristine item. ・For price negotiations, please comment with your desired price instead of using the system's price reduction request. ・Returns and exchanges are not accepted. ・The mouthpiece, case, Rovner ligature, and cap shown in the images are included. ・Please provide an evaluation promptly after receiving the item. We cannot accommodate requests like "evaluate after testing." Please feel free to ask any questions! ↓ From a review site ↓ Retro Revival Eric Marienthal Special From the American mouthpiece maker "Retro Revival" comes a tenor mouthpiece, a signature model supervised by Eric Marienthal, a superstar in the smooth jazz and fusion world. The appearance is a slim, orthodox metal mouthpiece form. The interior has a solid baffle, and the side rails and tip are beautifully finished. The sound is much warmer and thicker than you might imagine from the visuals. The fundamental tone is thick and resonates strongly, with vivid overtones on top of that foundation. Tone, volume, and nuance control are also effortless. It never becomes peaky. With this one, you feel like you can cover everything from combos to studios. Isn't this an ideal form? ● Material: Brass ● Finish: Gold Plate ● CNC Machining ● Opening: 8 (110) ● Accessories: Rovner ligature & cap included
