Product Details

Here's what J.J.Babbitt say:

 

The Otto Link Florida 5 is a revival of an iconic sound that has shaped jazz for generations. Known for its bright, cutting tone and powerful projection, the Florida V was meticulously crafted to deliver the same signature qualities of the original Florida models made in Pompano Beach. To achieve this, we used advanced laser scanning technology to study vintage mouthpieces and capture their precise specifications. Over time, the original forging dies had worn down, leading to inconsistencies in production. We corrected this by introducing new forging dies, realigning the Florida 5 to the original specs and ensuring pristine sound across the instrument’s full range.

While we faithfully restored the Florida’s core characteristics, we also took the opportunity to introduce modern innovations that elevate the mouthpiece for today’s musicians. Every Florida 5 mouthpiece is hand-finished with expert craftsmanship, ensuring smooth airflow and exceptional tonal balance. Key enhancements to the chamber improve resonance and airflow, allowing the Florida 5 to deliver a consistent, rich sound from low to high registers. Its flexible design enables players to seamlessly transition between intricate jazz phrases and powerful solos, making it the perfect companion for jazz, blues, and rock musicians alike.
