JodyJazz Super Jet Alto Saxophone Mouthpiece – 7 | Piano Gallery, Idaho Falls
The JodyJazz Super Jet is a professional alto saxophone mouthpiece built for players who want power, projection, and optimized construction alongside the fluidity and control that demanding jazz, funk, rock, and fusion performance requires — play tested by JodyJazz founder Jody Espina and constructed from palladium-plated brass for a bright, cutting tone that reaches the highest altissimo notes with ease. The tip 7 opening at .086" (2.18mm) is slightly larger than the DV's comparable size, balancing responsiveness with the projection and presence that solo and lead playing demands. A silver finish H-Ligature and cap are included for a complete, ready-to-play professional setup.
Product Overview
The Super Jet series sits alongside the DV series as one of JodyJazz's premier professional mouthpiece lines — distinguished by its palladium-plated brass construction and a slightly larger tip opening philosophy that prioritizes power and projection while maintaining the fluidity and control that experienced players demand. Where the DV series in gold-plated brass delivers the warmth and harmonic richness associated with that material, the Super Jet's palladium plating contributes a bright, clear, cutting tonal character that projects powerfully in any performance context — from jazz club to concert hall to solo front-of-house performance where the alto saxophone needs to cut through clearly and immediately.
Palladium plating is a premium precious metal finish valued in high-end instrument and mouthpiece applications for its hardness, corrosion resistance, and tonal contribution — harder than gold and significantly more durable, palladium maintains its surface quality through years of regular use without the softening and wear that some other plating materials develop over time. The dense, smooth playing surface of palladium-plated brass contributes to the Super Jet's consistent reed response and clear tonal articulation, and the brightness associated with the palladium finish is a meaningful tonal characteristic rather than simply a cosmetic choice.
JodyJazz's quality philosophy applies fully to the Super Jet — every mouthpiece is individually play tested by Jody Espina before leaving the workshop, ensuring that each instrument performs to the intended design specification. The artist roster that trusts JodyJazz — Kirk Whalum, Tom Scott, Andy Snitzer — represents some of the most technically demanding and tonally discerning saxophonists in contemporary music, and the Super Jet is a product built to meet those standards. The included silver finish H-Ligature is a quality ligature pairing that complements the Super Jet's construction and tonal character, providing the reed response and vibration freedom that enhances the mouthpiece's performance.
