Theo Wanne GAIA 4 Alto Hard Rubber Mouthpiece - 7

The GAIA 4 alto is fully re-designed! It still has the classic alto sound, but is so much more full and alive sounding!!!!

The result of the GAIA 4’s new design is an expressiveness, and creativity-of-play, never before experienced in a traditional sounding alto mouthpiece!  It includes and updated version of our proprietary Shark-Gill Baffle™, and our newly designed Large-Stadium Chamber™, which is a technologically advanced version of a traditional large chamber.   Once you spend some time on it, you will find a dynamic range and flexibility not found in any other alto mouthpiece.

The GAIA alto is available in premium hard rubber and in 24K gold plated brass.  At first we were hesitant to make this mouthpiece in brass, however, due to popular demand we made a few and the brass version was a huge hit!
