When I saw this on eBay yesterday, I was rather intrigued. I have one of these Crystalite mouthpieces for alto, and it is a very nice piece. My friend Ray has a black plastic Dukoff for tenor, and it too is a very nice sounding mouthpiece. (Update: I have it now, but I can’t get it to sound anywhere near as nice as Ray could.) \ud83d\ude09 <\/p>\n

I’m not sure when these Crystalite Dukoffs were made, but I’ve read on SOTW that it was in the ’80s. I’m just not sure how accurate that is.<\/p>\n

The seller, New York Woodwind and Brass Music, writes the following about this vintage Dukoff tenor piece<\/a>:<\/p>\n

This listing is for a vintage Miami, Florida Dukoff Super Power Chamber Crystalite mouthpiece for tenor sax. Stamped D7. This rare plastic mouthpiece plays beautifully. A bit of an edge and nice full tone. Appears to be in perfect condition except for a couple of tiny cracks forming under the stamp. For this reason it would be best to put a band around the shank. Not cleaned or polished. Acquired in excellent condition. Comes with what appears to be the original ligature and a metal cap. Offered here at a reasonable price considering the quality.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
