Review: Perfect for the beginner looking to move up - Hands down the best mouthpiece you can buy for the money as a beginner. I was looking to move up from my Yamaha 4C and bought a 6* that was a couple hundred bucks. That gave my tone a little too much freedom, so I bought this 5C as a stepping stone. The sound difference between the 4C and 5C is incredible. I no longer feel constrained, but I'm also not feeling so lost and I'm easily able to hold a note. Of all of the money I've spent on this hobby, this has been the best value.
Review: Good Step up Mouthpiece at a low price - I’ve been playing this mouthpiece for a few months and I gotta say, it’s pretty damn good. The tone quality is surprisingly good for a mouthpiece at this price and is generally responsive across the whole of the instrument. I have one problem with it though: it’s rough intonation in the upper register. It tends to be a bit sharp after Bb but you can work that out through practice. Mine came with a slightly crooked table but that might just be a defect on my piece. Overall, it’s a good mouthpiece for the price and would serve a student more than well for the entirety of high school. (I also found that it worked well with Java red reeds)

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect for the beginner looking to move up

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sound darn good for a very reasonable price
*by T***L on April 24, 2023*

I bought this mouthpiece and several others to explore different chamber and tip opening sizes. This A5 large chamber, 0.095" opening D'Addario sounds almost as good as an Otto Link Tone Edge 6* for 1/5 the price.
