Sepia Tone Will
The Sepia Tone Will is Gottsu’s first expansion into Clarinet mouthpieces, and is made for both Bass clarinet and B♭ clarinet. It is designed for Jazz styles, featuring an exceptionally dark tone and high resistance.
I made this model for students who play classical saxphone for marching band. Classical is a new field to me, so this model was challenging for me to develop. Right after I started introducing the Alto mouthpiece, I recieved a lot of requests for Clarinet mouthpieces, so I introduced the Bass and B♭clarinet mouthpieces, as well.
