'ARC' Hard Rubber Tenor Mouthpiece by James Bunte - Perfected Hand Finished Baffle
ARC for Tenor Saxophone
Every ARC mouthpiece is CNC machined from high quality bar hard rubber. They are then hand finished, play tested and fine tuned to perfection by James Bunte. These pieces show a clean and sleek take on the traditional hard rubber body which is also accented by the bright blue “ARC” lettering.
The inspiration for the ARC came from Mr. Bunte's experience in refacing a very unique and rare version of an Otto Link Reso Chamber which was stamped “Joe Allard Model”.
When Chase Baird (tremendous NY tenor player) sent me this Joe Allard Otto Link Reso Chamber to reface, I was astounded by the power, clarity, and complexity of the sound. This version of the Reso seems to be quite different from others I have played over the years. I had this Reso mouthpiece measured and my new ARC mouthpiece is CNC machined out of the best rubber rod stock I can get. I hand finish all the facings, baffles and rails. I am VERY proud of the result!
