Otto LinkMetal Baritone Saxophone Mouthpiece 7
1/2
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Metal baritone sax mouthpiece with a 7 tip opening. For a player who already knows they want a metal piece and a medium-open facing.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Baritone players wanting more projection in a loud horn section
- Step up from a stock student baritone mouthpiece
- Amplified or big-band settings where the bari must cut
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Beginners still building embouchure control on baritone
- Players wanting a warm, blended classical baritone sound
- Anyone whose ligature only fits hard rubber pieces
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Metal body
Thinner walls and a smaller outside profile than hard rubber, so it feels smaller in the mouth.
Detail 03
Metal construction
Generally more projection and edge than a comparable rubber piece, which matters in loud settings.
Detail 04
Baritone-specific
Sized for baritone only. Will not fit a tenor, alto, or soprano neck cork.
Detail 05
$425 price tier
Professional-level piece. Expect to spend more on reeds and a fitted ligature to get it working.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01No ligature or cap included in this configuration — budget for a metal-specific set
- 02Your rubber-mouthpiece ligature will almost certainly be too large
- 03Neck cork may need shaving or building up to seat the piece correctly
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will my current ligature fit?
Only if it is made for metal baritone mouthpieces. Metal pieces have a smaller outside diameter than hard rubber, so rubber-piece ligatures slip.
02Is a 7 too open for me?
If you play a stock student mouthpiece now, a 7 will feel like more resistance and more air. Try a softer reed strength than you currently use.
03Does it fit tenor sax?
No. This is cut for baritone saxophone. Tenor requires a tenor-specific mouthpiece.
04What reed strength should I start with?
Drop roughly half to a full strength from what you use on a closer mouthpiece. Wider tip openings need softer reeds to respond.
