The perfect Allround MPC
I was back from Tenor with Otto Link STM 6* to Alto Sax. I chose a vintage Buescher Big B from 1949, so I was on the search for a uncomplicated but jazzy MPC with a medium chamber. I own an older Selmer S80 F but its too big for my starting. After a research I found the M6M, everywhere its recommended for THE Jazz MPC on Alto Sax, so I got me one. For my beginnig the M6M is a good choice, cause it is not too open but has yet a bigger, jazzier sound tham my old Selmer. It's easy to blow the hiole register and you can make it scream, swing or just whispering without any problem. And, very important to me, it has a very god Intonation on my old Horn. I'm thinking to go for a M7M in the next 1-2- Years.

Pretty Good
I mainly play tenor and haven't enough facility on alto to give an authoritative, in depth review of this mouthpiece.
But I can say that it is a huge step up from the stock mouthpiece that came with my alto. The sound is warm and dark but easily capable of brightness. I sense no issues with production of altissimo or subtone. Response is fantastic. I still don't sound like Cannonball Adderley - but can't blame the mouthpiece.
Two points deducted in terms of quality - 1 / the side rails are visibly unequal in thickness (does that make a difference? - probably but beyond my capacity to judge) 2/ as so many reviewers have noted, the ligature is poor. This is not just a matter of it being a bog-standard twin-screw brass design - that, in itself, need not be an issue - the problem is that the screws do not always tighten smoothly.
So buy this mouthpiece but factor in getting a quality ligature. I've been using a Vandoren Optimum and the improvement in sound and response over the supplied lig is striking

Great value
Really pleased with this all-rounder. Nice to have the heritage included in the very reasonable price.

THE Jazz Alto mouthpiece
clarity of tone, projection, articulation - you can find all of these with this mouthpiece, and a tone that can go from a husky whisper to a full throated roar! Vintage Meyer mouthpieces sell for a fortune - but don't believe the hype, the modern ones are just as good!

Great mouthpiece, bad ligature
The mouthpiece itself is a classic piece of sax gear, but it comes with poorly made ligature. Keep in mind you probably would have to purchase extra ligature to achieve this mouthpiece's full potential. I use mine with Vandoren M|O, and I think it does pretty good job.

Vonderful
Arrived and i don't want to stop to play on it. Absolutely fantastic sound with full body, but can scream like a bird.
Free blowing, easy to play.
This is the best jazz mouthpiece!
Thank you Thomann! :)

Perfect mouthpiece for me
I am a tenor sax player. I wanted to try alto and here I am buying my alto mouthpiece. The mouthpiece is very easy blowing, with a nice dark sound. It is performing very well throughout the whole range. It helps for better intonation of the instrument. Altissimo range is quite easy to play as well as low register. It is good for beginners and for professionals.

Meyer Mouthpeice
The USA Meyer BA-2 M6M Alto saxophone mouthpiece is an amazing mouthpiece with a lovely rich tone. I am extremely impressed with this mouthpiece. My expectations were high and yet I`m still impressed. I would strongly recommend this mouthpiece to anyone who has an interest in developing jazz techniques.
