"When I was studying in University of Miami in the late '80s, I visited the Warburton factory in Hollywood, Florida. After using and loving their mouthpiece for a couple of years, I started switching to other brands and trying to improve on something I already had with Warburton. Needless to say, NO other mouthpice came even close to that, and of course, I came back.
Now with my signature model I have better sound, projection, accuracy, and general ease of playing. Playing mostly latin and pop music, the band volume levels are usually very loud. With this mouthpiece I can better survive live gigs. And for recordings, it gives me a lot more overall control, which helps me get out of the studio a lot faster."
