Description
FREE BLOWING, EASY TO PLAY, AND EXTREMELY FLEXIBLE
There is no doubt that Jody Espina knew exactly what he was doing when designing this mouthpiece. His HR is something of a modern classic. There’s a really nice warm, rounded and smooth sound, a nice free blowing feel with great consistency throughout the range of the sax. On top of that, it also responds extremely well when pushed, delivering bigger and better projection than the vast majority of ebonites. The HR* is aimed at professionals and students who are after a well-made and versatile mouthpiece without breaking the bank. For its price, it’s an absolute bargain!

Staff Review
If you're after a Tenor piece that can do it all, this is it! A nice free and easy response with just the right level of resistance, and the comfortable feel of hard rubber! While it may not carry the same level of power as other mouthpieces in the JodyJazz range (such as the Jet, Super Jet, or DV), the HR* excels in its versatility. I could easily see this piece fitting into a jazz or big band situation, just as well as in a concert wind band or sax quartet - Oren Gurney (oren@sax.co.uk)
Pro Reviews
"My JodyJazz HR* 10* Hard Rubber is ever-changing in the most positive sense, more so than any piece that I have ever experienced. This is what I look for in a good mouthpiece....buy one now!" - George Garzone
"This mouthpiece speaks to me loud, fat and clear. Not long after buying the tenor piece I replaced my alto refaced link with the JodyJazz HR* Alto and the JodyJazz ESP Bari Gold also. Without a doubt, these mouthpieces were created with a vision. " - David Beecroft
