If you tried the JodyJazz DV and loved the ease of play, but felt it was just too bright, the DV NY is the mouthpiece for you. Several changes were made to the original DV, the most notable being a deeper chamber. The JodyJazz DV NY Alto Saxophone Mouthpiece is free-blowing with a robust sound and a lot of bottom end. The primary goal was to create a mouthpiece for the jazz saxophonist looking for a similar sound to the great artists from the 40s, 50s, and 60s. The mouthpiece also received a warm welcome from saxophone players using vintage Link and Meyer pieces. The DV NY produces a similar sound without the stuffiness and resistance. This mouthpiece comes with Theo Wanne's innovative cap, ligature and pouch. What Does The DV NY Do?
