    5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to play and great tone quality
    Reviewed in the United States on February 18, 2015
    Style: SL3Verified Purchase
    I use this mouthpiece with my Yanagisawa curved soprano sax and am very happy with it. I'm a beginner on soprano sax, yet this mouthpiece is easy to play and sounds great. I also have a Selmer Concept mouthpiece, which has a slightly warmer sound. Choosing between the two is a matter of taste; they are both excellent. This mouthpiece is somewhat larger than some others, so I found my Rovner Versa ligature did not fit. So I got a Vandoren Optimum ligature that works great with this mouthpiece.

    2.0 out of 5 stars Table is not flat
    Reviewed in the United States on March 6, 2024
    Style: SL5Verified Purchase
    low notes was very hard to produce its like only 20% hit on Bb, same reed on a 4C 100%hit on Bb. I initiated return but I took a gamble by flattening the table and the curve angle and now it is perfect, 100% hit on low Bb on a legere 2.75. Just search sopranoplanet in YT for fixing the table, sometimes it is not you or the saxophone that is the fault.

    4.0 out of 5 stars 高音が痩せない
    Reviewed in Japan on June 10, 2020
    Style: SL5Verified Purchase
    ずっと昔からバンドレン派です。（吹奏楽）
    ここのところＳ２５を使用していましたが、思い切ってＳＬ５にチャレンジしてみようと思い購入しました。
    Ｓ２５のオープニングは153(1/100mm)、ＳＬ５は125(1/100mm)と開きは大きな差があります。

    フェイシングの関係でＳＬ５は若干抵抗があります。思い切り吹き込むと音量の上限を感じました。Ｓ２５はそのような事はありません。
    まぁ、ソプラノでそこまで大きな音は要求されませんし、そんな事をしたら合奏が台無しになりますからね。

    私見になりますが、
    Ｓ２５の明るめなストレートの音色と比較すると、ＳＬ５は少しダークで丸く落ち着いた感じです（音のエッジが無くなるという意味ではありません）。立ち上がりは良いです。特に高音域が痩せないし出しやすいです。

    心地よい抵抗感ですが息苦しさは全くありません。
    キンキンした明るい音は好きでは無いので、とても気に入りました。

    国産ブロンズカーブド、リガチャはＢＧトラディショナルゴールド(L51)、リードはグラコン（またはロイヤル）番手３を使用しています。
