TED KLUM HANDCRAFTED FOCUS TONE TENOR MOUTHPIECE
The great musician and mouthpiece maker Ted Klum has come out with a metal tenor mouthpiece that is truly out of this world! Ted custom made one for me that I am currently playing. Since they just became available, only Roberto's in NYC, Bob Ackerman in NJ and Ishimori in Tokyo are presently carrying them. If your in the market for a superior tenor mouthpiece, do yourself a favor and check out the "Focus Tone" ! - DL
