I love the feel of stainless steel on the chops, and Ivan's pieces are top quality through and through. He made exactly what I asked him to do, and it allows me to accomplish what I need on my horn. Stainless is the way of the future for mouthpieces!

I've wanted to use a stainless steel mouthpiece for a while now as it simply feels great on the chops and you know it will be the same forever. I love how they really focus the sound and give "HD" clarity to the fronts of notes and the tone quality in general. Ivan made me a piece that truly fit exactly what I was looking for, and it really has enhanced my overall playing experience greatly!

  • There is no known level of lead exposure that is considered safe.
