Description: This is a Theo Wanne KALI #9 Alto Saxophone Mouthpiece. The mouthpiece is in very good used condition. There is some wear of the gold plating on the table, but it does not affect the sound of this mouthpiece. This mouthpiece has a powerful bright sound. Production of Kali mouthpieces ended in 2014 and they are now rarely found for sale. The set includes a mouthpiece, Liberty ligature, the original plastic cap and a tool for changing the position of the ligature. Information from the manufacture. The KALI mouthpiece was Theo Wanne’s first high baffle production mouthpiece. It was designed with a baffle similar to the Dave Guardala Michael Brecker Model, however, it had much more deeply rounded inner side walls and a large chamber. It had a much bigger bottom end than the Brecker Model. In 2009 Theo’s technology developed to the point where the KALI mouthpieces could have the highly accurate machined baffles his mouthpieces are known for. These mouthpieces had the reticulated outside finish like his later mouthpieces as well. An alto version of the KALI was released in both metal and hard rubber. The KALI was discontinued after the DURGA was released and Theo felt they had too many models. The last of the KALI tenor mouthpieces (with a serial number starting with 5 or greater) had a particularly fat sound and have become collectors items. Thanks for looking.
