An original Morgan “legacy model” designed by the late Ralph Morgan, the Morgan Jazz Alto Medium Chamber has been part of the Morgan lineup since the mid-1980s. Its medium round chamber and low rollover baffle produce a bright, lively traditional jazz tone with excellent projection and response.
Compared with our Large Chamber model, the Medium Chamber offers a little more focus, brilliance and edge while retaining the warmth and tonal depth associated with traditional Morgan mouthpieces.

Handcrafted the Morgan Way
The Morgan Jazz Alto Medium Chamber is handcrafted from our proprietary 100% pure hard rubber, molded and cured to Morgan specifications.
Rather than relying on CNC machining to create the finished interior, our craftsmen shape and finish the facing curve, tip and side rails, chamber and baffle by hand. Each mouthpiece is individually finished and voiced for response, balance and consistency.

It plays about the same as my Selmer S80 E facing in terms of resistance to the air stream. It sounds a lot brighter and louder, which is what I was looking for.
Great!
As a professional saxophonist this has been my go to mouthpiece for 8 years. It's so incredibly versatile! You can get a fair amount of edge out of this mouthpiece whilst retaining a silky smooth core. You can also play mellow if need be. I have tried dozens of other mouthpiece brands but this one comes out on top. Add to that the amazing consistency and customer service and you've got a clear winner!
From the first notes I played on the mouthpiece I was having fun, which is important to me! Great response, flexible but intonation is good, and very "alto-y" sounding. It helps me thicken up the upper register a bit.
I am a professional of 35 years. I just acquired a vintage Morgan 7M alto. Holy cow. I play all four horns (S, A, T, B) and have owned probably hundreds of pieces over the years. I have been able to find my voice on a number of Tenor and Bari pieces, but alto and soprano are more of a challenge to find a good, full blowing piece that can respond from a whisper to a shout - with a nice, warm core and higher overtones that can be driven to a scream if necessary. This is what a pro needs to tackle everything from jazz to pop to funk and rock.
This mouthpiece does it. Holy cow, does it do it. My lip is sore b/c I couldn't put it down. It worked equally well with a Mk VI, Radio Improved and Yammie 62. I will say - this is a VINTAGE piece, before the logo was stamped on the back. "7 M Morgan" and some other things I can't read are hand-scrawled across the shank, including what appears to be a treble clef.
All I can say is, if he's making them the same way now, don't hesitate - it's a HELL of a piece, and I have good Links, Meyers, Bergs, Lambersons etc.
Thanks, Ralph! By the way, we spoke probably 25 years ago when I was referred to you by Wil. Your work is SUPERB. God bless.
