Even though the Fire mouthpiece is cheaper than Theo Wanne's professional models, it is still produced in the USA. Similar to all other Theo Wanne products, the Fire alto sax mouthpiece is manufactured using advanced machining techniques to ensure every mouthpiece is exactly the same. Like other similarly priced mouthpieces, the Fire is crafted from professional grade brass to ensure the best quality. Once the Fire mouthpiece has been finished, it is professionally plated with 24K gold with a reticulated finish to enhance airflow.
The Theo Wanne Fire Alto Sax Mouthpiece is a reasonably priced mouthpiece for saxophonists that require a bright sound. The small chamber in the Fire mouthpiece is smaller than the bore which narrows the airstream as it moves through the centre of the mouthpiece. This unique design creates a compact and focused tone. The tip found on the Fire 6 mouthpiece is easier to blow compared to the 8 and has a more centred tone with little resistance. This amount of resistance is essential for producing the direct sound required for a rock & roll tone. The tip holds good intonation, but can also produce small inflections in the tone when required.
The Theo Wanne Fire Alto Sax Mouthpiece includes everything you need to look after the mouthpiece. The mouthpiece includes Theo Wanne's new and unique two rail, single screw ligature to makes sure the reed is always held securely. The Fire also includes a reed replacer cap and user replaceable bite pads.

"I’m blown away!! The Fire is easily the best metal mouthpiece I’ve ever played on alto. Appropriately named, it’s loud and captures all the upper partials of the tone, but never sounds thin. Very exciting!" Mark Douthit (Michael McDonald, Elton John, Vince Gill)
"I like the full and most powerful sound of this mouthpiece, and I feel a great improvement in my performance. I love FIRE!!!" Nica Feng (Shanghai Performing Artist)
