Description

THE SOUND: The Jack of Spades is an incredibly rich sounding mouthpiece, with a very complex tone filled with  an fantastic, very unique mix of highs, mids, and lows. The sound is best described as being like a super high end clarinet, with woody overtones enriching the dark timbre.

THE APPLICATION: The Jack of Spades is designed to give the player a dark and very complex sound which is particularly well suited for jazz and popular music work.
