- This is a review of the Paititi Txx-7 mouthpiece for tenor sax. This is a repost of a popular video I did. I've already gotten 2 unlacquered mouthpieces plated (gold and silver) from Anderson Silver Plating.

Interesting mouthpiece for $65 but I will say everything has to do with the players abilities and the knowledge of their equipment you sir are very very good!!!👍👍👍
Thanks
The sound blew me away. Was actually surprised. might just get it
Hey Adrien good to see you again.
Cool mouthpiece.
My guy. Everything you play, you kill. Always enjoy the test. Thanks.
Thanks
Like always, sounds amazing
Love the Thundercats shirt !!! Nice Vids. Thanks
You may want to review Eastern Musics mouthpieces, especially the Guardala FatBoy MBII replica. It’s selling like crazy at $100. I have two, 7* and 8 and they’re really good.
sounds great . he always sounds great.
Amazing sound as always!!! Somenone knows if this ligature fits to Gary Sugal mouthpiece?
I picked that mouthpiece up a couple weeks ago. It’s good to see an actual video on it. Thanks for coming through on that
Cool
Great video brother. Can you make a review video on Ever-ton alto and tenor sax Mouthpiece?? Thank You
I might have to get some of the bare brass versions of these chinese mouthpieces and get them plated. Also I'm thinking about getting the Theo Wanne kit and learning refacing with that. Been watching a lot of stuff on it lately. Pretty happy with all my Bergs now though as far as my main mpcs. MRS Akron dude told me he had a Mark VI Bb bari btw, pretty sure he wants more than what I paid for the Super 20 though.
This mouthpiece looks identical to a Lawton mouthpiece that I bought used in 1979 at the NAJE convention in Albuquerque. I loved it and used it until my horn was stolen in 1987. I think I may try one just to see what it is like...
Hi, I bought the same by Aliexpress with the name Aisiweier for 35.80 US$. My choice was the Tenor 6 gold lack 24K.
Yes the finish is good. You say that it is easy to play. I find it more difficult to play as the other Chinese I have the Dukoff Tenor 7.
I pay it 28 US$, but have polished it using sand paper 600 -to 10'000 and with diamant paste to improve the sealing with the reed and the inside, improving the sound.
The Aisiweier is a lot louder as the Dukoff, but the Dukoff is for me easier to play and disturbs less the neighborhood. Perhaps you will say more dark.
The geometry inside is completely different in both mouthpieces.
I play them with Légère Signature 2 or 2.25.
Thank you for testing low cost material. Not every one can buy mouthpiece at 600 US$ or more.
I love it how when you start to explain at 08:03 the sound is totally muted for a brief moment, as the camera microphone needs to adjust its sensitivity level after huge projection of your tenor sax, lol
Just bought this too for my alto and man it gives me a nice bright sound and I find it really easy to blow through. I may try stronger Reed to see if that changes. But I feel like you get more bang for your buck here.
What a beautiful place that is a hotel. The mouthpiece sounds good to you and it also sounds like the teo that are ridiculously expensive eternal health for everyone in your family
Its a cruise ship
@Sirvalorsax Great Video and to you or anyone out there, I have this very same mouthpiece for my Tenor and Alto in hopes that I can begin working with Altissimo notes. Must be something in my Embouchure and fingering, that I am unable to hammer out. Any Hand Tips or Hints on what needs to happen inside my mouth and air stream ? Please Advise!
Thank you for the informative video. Are there major differences between "plated" and raw brass, other than appearance? Wouldn't brass be better in terms of long term durability? Brass doesn't corrode anyway.
Raw brass will patina. Its like a tarnish. It can require a chemical bath in order to remove/restore it. I would never use any kind of raw brass mouthpieces
You shhould review the new Dickerson Resonator Ligature for Tenor sax on Reverb & ebay - it's different
There is copy MPC robusto o Navarro?
nice living room
Good Sir, Thank you. We all perceive and mitigate risk in our own way so I'll refrain from rehashing toxicity comments prev, submitted. That mpc doesn't have as good a sound as many you've demoed. less bite, stuffy, Including the Aibay. Although I agree with your comments on predatory trade in other vid, I've spent a small fortune on USA mpcs and think I'll spring for an Aibay free of guilt. I recall a suggestion that If you want a 7 feel buy a 9. BTW...I wonder what chemicals {soluble in saliva} leach out of that rubber patch? :} And keep oxidizing those reeds, Doc, peroxides of water rule.
Unrelated question, I have some BARI brand clear plastic reeds. H, M, and Soft. I like the fact that they can be left on and just pick the horn and play. My question, can they be worked, sanded, rush? I can No info. Just thought You or somebody might know.👍😎🎵🎵
I think they can be sanded, and clipped. But I don't think you can file them or use a reed geek. The BARI woodwind factory is close by to my hometown. I've seen their manufacturing process. They are good reeds actually. Really durable. They can definitely be sanded
@@tracezacur6784 Thanx bud, was just wondering what experience and insight was out there😎
About plating mouthpieces, how does the thickness of the plating material added affect the interior dimension and flow volume of the mouthpiece, and the plating thickness on the facing as well. To they reface or remove the plating from the facing when they finish the job? If so, doesn’t that expose the original material you are trying to protect yourself from?
The idea is to have it plated with a known entiry when it's finished. It's raw brass and how it reacts when in the mouth that is the concern for unplated mpcs. Since I can't get any info from the manufacturer about what this plating is, I'd rather just have it plated from a well known and trusted source.
Sirvalorsax can you say about how much the plating costs?
The chest harness that you’re wearing looks to be exactly what I need. My 76 year-old neck now finds my heavy tenor sax a real burden and I can’t really manage much more that about 20 minutes playing without seveer neck pain. Is there any way you could reveal what make the harness is ?
BG sax harness
Many thanks.
I have for some time, wondered if there is a relationship between price and quality for mouthpieces. If so, what is it you are paying for?
For sure, quality craftmanship, research and development, innovation ect... I recently did a video where I go into more detail on this subject here: th-cam.com/video/4LB8ZwJXwlM/w-d-xo.html
I’ve seen a review were as you push it down it destroys the cork did you experience that?
I didn't have that problem with this mouthpiece
Would you recommend plating/replating for the paititi mouthpiece?
I would suggest replating any mouthpiece that has virtually no information about the manufacturing process.
It's so hard to tell when the player is so good. It does sound cheap though on the lower notes.
Nice video Silvalor tx.
Vandorren reeds take a while to break in to get that fat sound you’re looking for. If you want to play the low notes with that reed, it will require a lot of breath for me. I play the Bari sax with a Jody Jazz Superjet. And it costs $450. But the mouthpiece you’re playing with, sounds 🤩
What expensive jazz mouthpiece would you recommend. Don’t say Theo Wanne Durga 4😅😅 that’s almost 800.
I would get an Otto Link and find someone that knows how to adjust them to your liking. Your looking at around $200-$300 for the mouthpiece and around $200 to have it adjusted. If you wanted to have it replated in addition to that you are looking at another $200 ish dollars. Somewhere between $500-$700. If you are looking for something expensive out of the box, I love the work that Arnold Montgomery and Morgan Frye are doing.
Im currently practicing for a High School Jazz Competition, would anyone recommend this?
I would not recommend this for that ensemble
i might be looking to upgrade mouthpieces, what mpc do you recommend for a beginner?
I would watch his video on "How Many Mouthpieces do you Really Need" (title is something like that) and check out some of those--based on what music you want to play and your budget.
@@gangofgreenhorns2672 thx, I think I'm going to get the Otto link 7*, I'm still playing on 1.5 reeds so a bigger tip opening is better
Check out Dadarrio. I picked up one on Amazon so far best Mpc for the money and got the sound and quality I wanted without breaking the bank
@@nic_sax I'll look into it
@@nic_sax I'm gonna upgrade later on around Feb or march I just wanted to see what options were good 👌
You always sound great, Sir. I can absolutely hear what you mean about the altissimo on this piece. Wow! Sounds like you were able to articulate through those double-time lines fairly well too. There was clarity and definition of each note. Your low register is fat and warm as well. Were you able to get that easily on this piece or did you have to work a little harder? With a mouthpiece that isn't quite as open, for me, the low register will fight me.
Its a little stiff in the lower register compared to other mouthpieces
@@Sirvalorsax Doesn't sound like it from this side. Sounds full and free. Must be the cat playin' it!!
Hey so can this mouth piece fit any neck
Yes. You may have to have your neck recorked but I didn't have to do that
Is it copy a MPC lawton?
No
Some of them try to be but not this brand. Look at the baffle shapes hat copy the Lawton’s.
Yeah man ! I was gonna comment on that . I appreciate your videos BUT I was always leery about putting anything made in China in my mouth . Keep up the informative videos ! ! ! !
Then don't use any eating utensils. Rock on.
I appreciate your negative sentiments about China. However, one needs to understand that with the technologies and metallurgical advances all over the world, it is not hard to duplicate a good working example in a medium size factory. Many people would be prepared to hand out 3 or 4 times more, for the knowledge of not having a Chinese made rubbish in his mouth. But I bet many don't see "made in China" as an issue as most of the stuffs at Walmart are made in China anyway.
@@WalkOverHotCoal Stick to the script . We talking about saxophone mouthpieces . Furthermore my statement still stands . I'm leary of putting things made in China in my mouth. Advances all over the world in technology , doesn't mean that certain countries adhere to certain health regulations . To further your ignorance of my statement , let me ask you a question : " If " China is considered an adversary of the U.S. , why would I want that adversary , OR ANY OTHER ADVERSARY , to feed me ? So with that being said , if something that is designed to be ingested , eaten , or goes in my mouth and it's made in China .... I'm Not Putting It In "MY" Mouth . ( providing I know it came from China )
The tone is inconsistent, it breaks apart. This is, like, a brass blank mouthpiece, but needs hours of hand work by a pro refacer to refine it into something usable.
When you play on a really good mouthpiece, like on that Woodstone of yours, and this one, the difference is like heaven and earth.
When hours of fine tuning and refacing are added on top, the cost comes to the level of a brand new, professionally made mouthpiece.
Bruh imagine my reaction when I buy the tenor mouthpiece off amazon and get shipped the soprano one 😩😩😩
At least I got the soprano one for $8 less
How did it play?
@@Sirvalorsax I don’t have a soprano
@@pingusosaba6642 return it immediately
@@Sirvalorsax way ahead of ya
Gonna repurchase and hope I get what I paid for
Looks flat? Not enough, Needs to be measured. Mention the baffle as well, which is an important part of the mouthpiece.
Lol 😆
Plating is not the main concern with these mouthpieces. As a matter of fact you have been using plated pieces from Asia all your life. Check your utensils fork knife spoon.
For me it is. I've never had plating on kitchen cutlery wear off and I also don't have it in my mouth for 4-8 hours per day.
