Hite Premiere Alto Sax Mouthpiece

Acoustically Superior Design for Developing and Advancing Saxophonists

Achieve a rich, beautifully centered tone with the Hite Premiere Alto Saxophone Mouthpiece (DH117), available at MusicMasters. Widely recommended by band directors and private woodwind instructors alike, the Premiere by Hite line bridges the gap between restrictive student mouthpieces and expensive professional models. It is engineered to give developing players an immediate upgrade in responsiveness, acoustic flexibility, and overall intonation control without requiring extreme embouchure adjustments.

Unlike standard budget alternatives molded from cheap plastics, each Premiere mouthpiece is cast from a high-grade plastic polymer compound and finished with precisely cut facings and internal chambers. The medium tip opening and carefully balanced facing length offer optimal resistance for standard cane or synthetic reeds. This ensures crisp articulation, easy low-register response, and effortless altissimo production across the entire dynamic range of the alto saxophone.

Product Benefits

• Enhanced Intonation Control: The internal chamber dimensions are acoustically tuned to minimize pitch fluctuating between octaves, helping students play in tune with much less effort.
• Effortless Airflow and Articulation: A hand-inspected facing curve balances the air resistance, providing a clean response that helps players master staccato and legato styling quickly.
• Cost-Effective Performance Upgrade: Provides the tonal warmth and projection characteristics normally associated with premium hard rubber mouthpieces at a fraction of the cost.

Key Features

• Optimized medium tip opening matches perfectly with reed strengths from 2.0 to 3.5.
• Crafted from a durable, warp-resistant proprietary polymer compound for a lifetime of reliable performance.
• Universally fits standard alto saxophone neck corks and accommodates most traditional alto ligatures.
• Each mouthpiece comes individually packaged in a protective clear-top display case.
