Otto Link Florida V Tenor Sax Mouthpiece

The Otto Link Florida 5 — A Modern Evolution of a Jazz Classic.

The Otto Link Florida 5 is a revival of an iconic sound that has shaped jazz for generations. Known for its bright, cutting tone and powerful projection, the Florida V was meticulously crafted to deliver the same signature qualities of the original Florida models made in Pompano Beach. To achieve this, we used advanced laser scanning technology to study vintage mouthpieces and capture their precise specifications. Over time, the original forging dies had worn down, leading to inconsistencies in production. We corrected this by introducing new forging dies, realigning the Florida 5 to the original specs and ensuring pristine sound across the instrument’s full range.

The Florida 5 is more than just a tribute to Otto Link’s heritage—it’s a bold step forward. This fifth-generation mouthpiece captures the essence of classic jazz tones while embracing the modern engineering needed for contemporary performance. Whether you’re a professional seeking to recreate the golden era of jazz or a player looking to explore new musical landscapes, the Florida 5 offers an unparalleled experience. It’s a mouthpiece that invites you to connect with the history of jazz while creating your own sound for the future.
