The AMBIKA IV Tenor Mouthpiece is our darkest mouthpiece. It has a deep, hauntingly gorgeous tone!

The AMBIKA IV has a full bodied sound reminiscent of the vintage 1940’s mouthpieces, but with much improved projection, ease of play, and dynamics.  

• Built to outplay Theo’s very best Vintage New York Tone Master and Master Link Otto Link
• A deep and haunting sound best left to poetry. Hauntingly dark!
• Revolutionary in improving upon the true vintage sound!
• Extra Large True Large Chamber, Straight baffle, and rounded inner side walls.
• Crafted to the highest accuracy in the history of saxophone mouthpieces.
• Designed by Theo Wanne, the foremost expert on the design and manufacturing of vintage and new mouthpieces.

The AMBIKA IV maintains the fundamental beauty of the AMBIKA III, but with a richer, fuller body to the sound. During research and development stages 100% of the endorsers who were using the AMBIKA III have switched to the IV, which is a great testament. As our darkest model we are pleased to make it even more ‘lovely & beautiful’ sounding!

We made changes to the ‘standard’ large-chamber, which has evolved into our Large-Stadium-Chamber™. This chamber design gets its name from its shape, which is reminiscent of a Football Stadium. This allows an even bigger bottom end, and a fuller sound at the same time.

The indented lines you see on the baffle, are our patented Shark Gill Baffle™.  Being patented means you will only find this innovative feature on our mouthpieces. It works on the physics principle of ‘boundary layer effect’, similar to the dimples on a golf ball. In a mouthpiece, the airstream is pulled closer to the floor and side walls. This allows one to ‘fill’ the mouthpiece more with air, resulting in increased dynamics.

The Metal AMBIKA is plated with 24K gold. The Hard Rubber AMBIKA uses real vintage style hard rubber just like the vintage mouthpieces of the 1940s-50s, and its new thin body allows the premium hard rubber to fully resonate, giving quite a fantastic sound.  Now you can hear the full magic in this type of hard rubber.  If you like the vintage sound, you will love the AMBIKA.
