About 100 of these tenor mouthpiece blanks were sold to Zimberoff -House of Note, who produced a tenor saxophone mouthpiece under their own name. This might have been a ‘Dexter Gordon’ Special model, so I suspect he played on this model tenor mouthpiece. I know there was a 1949 Dukoff BD Hollywood tenor saxophone mouthpiece stamped “DG Special” on the side with a 6* tip opening. There has always been a huge debate about which model BD Dukoff tenor sax mouthpiece Dexter Gordon played, the 1945 medium chamber or the 1949 large chamber model. “Dexter Gordon played on a Conn 10m tenor saxophone and a Dukoff BD Hollywood tenor saxophone mouthpiece during the Blue Note era until the mid-sixties.
Here is some information about Dukoff Hollywood tenor saxophone mouthpieces as well as the Zimberoff model Dukoff Hollywood mouthpieces from Theo Wanne’s mouthpiece museum page: KPoudavoff Zimberoff Dukoff Hollywood 6* Copy with Dexter’s Curve Tenor Saxophone Mouthpiece The fact that this tenor mouthpiece allegedly has Dexter Gordon’s exact facing curve applied to it makes me even more excited to try this mouthpiece. I have never played a Dukoff Hollywood tenor saxophone mouthpiece before so I am very excited to try out this KPoudavoff copy of this iconic (thanks to Dexter Gordon) tenor saxophone mouthpiece. Today, I will be reviewing the KPoudavoff Zimberoff Dukoff Hollywood 6* tenor saxophone mouthpiece with Dexter Gordon’s unique facing curve applied to it. I have already reviewed the KPoudavoff Double Ring 7* tenor saxophone mouthpiece, the KPoudavoff Florida 7* tenor mouthpiece and the Kpoudavoff Zimberoff Dukoff Hollywood 7* tenor saxophone mouthpiece.
Kirill sent me four 3-D printed examples of his tenor saxophone mouthpieces made of plastic after I asked if I could perhaps try out his mouthpiece work. Kirill is a great young tenor sax player that is in his fourth semester at Berklee College of Music in Boston. Today, I am reviewing another tenor saxophone mouthpiece made by a young mouthpiece maker, refacer and saxophone player from Russia named Kirill Poudavoff.
