The V16 hard rubber mouthpieces have been a perennial favourite from Vandoren, offering excellent playability with a warm, versatile sound, perfect for jazz or contemporary music. Now Vandoren have created a large-chamber model, offering the same smooth playability with a darker, warmer and deeper tone, with even more dynamic range and "oomph". Ideal for jazz players or contemporary players seeking a "smokier" sound.

These mouthpieces are very similar in design and feel to vintage American mouthpieces of the 50s and 60s, such as the hard rubber Otto Link pieces of that era. If you've been playing through vintage mouthpieces searching for that characteristic sound, definitely give these a try. At their price point they offer outstanding bang for buck, with Vandoren's legendary consistency.
