Description: THANKS FOR CHECKING OUT MY AUCTION. PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE DESCRIPTION AND MY POLICIES BEFORE PLACING YOUR BID. Check out my other items!Be sure to add me to your favorites list! This listing is for a vintage Brilhart metal (stainless steel) mouthpiece for tenor saxophone. It is the model known as the Level Air, although they are not actually marked as such on the mouthpiece. This was the first popular high baffle mouthpiece to come on the market. These were very popular with funk and fusion players in the 1970's. I know Sanborn used one on alto before switching to a Dukoff, and I think Brecker also used one for a while. This is a 1st generation version of this model. It is identified as such by its 4-digit serial number (not date stamp), and horizontal mill marks on the table. In my experience, 1st generation Level Airs consistently outplay subsequent eras. This one has the serial number 1397. It is stamped 5, and the tip opening measures .085". For reference, that would be equal to a 5* on the more commonly used Otto Link scale. This mouthpiece is in very good condition. It has not been damaged or worked on. There are no dings or gouges to the tip or side rails. There is light oxidation on the table, which is quite normal for this model. The shank is perfectly round. There are no tooth gouges on the bite plate. This mouthpiece comes with its original ligature, also in excellent condition. It has not been bent out of shape or cracked. The screws work properly. The original cap is also included. It has a tiny spot of corrosion on top but is in otherwise excellent condition. It has not been bent, dinged, or cracked. All pieces have been cleaned/sanitized. Please feel free to message me with any questions. 10/17/24-11
