The Morgan Jazz Tenor Florida Model is a traditional jazz tenor mouthpiece inspired by the legendary “Slant Signature” Tone Edge mouthpieces produced by Otto Link in Florida. Formerly known as the Morgan Jazz MLL, the Florida Model combines a large round chamber with a low rollover baffle for a warm, rich and full-bodied tenor sound.
Designed for players who appreciate the character of classic hard rubber jazz mouthpieces, the Florida Model offers a traditional tonal core with warmth, depth and plenty of projection when pushed.

Handcrafted the Morgan Way
The Morgan Jazz Tenor Florida Model...
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.

Ordered three to try out and kept one (FL 6) to use for my tenor. The mouthpieces are super high quality. The care and craft they put into these is immediately apparent from the packaging to how they play. Wonderful, pro quality mouthpieces! Also, the trial policy was very user friendly.
My son leads a jazz octet that is very 1950's/west coast cool style-wise. He had been using an old Meyer 7M on tenor in that group, which had the sound, but tended to get buried due to a total lack of projection. The Morgan Florida fits the bill perfectly- has that vintage sound, but MUCH more volume/projection than the Meyer. It's a keeper!
There are lots of Florida Link inspired pieces on the market and I have a few, all of them 5* or 5. I was curious about this Morgan piece. It’s beautifully handcrafted, has a comfortable slim beak and plays evenly through all registers and dynamic including harmonics. I has a good subtone in all octaves and when pushed, has a strong solid core. I’m playing it with a 3.5 Royal on a MK 6. If a Getz type sound is your thing, you can’t do better than this.
playing the florida tenor model is such a joy and i can play for longer. feels very natural playing. it plays with a big upper register. ofcourse the lower is fantastic too. highly recommended
Top notch mouthpiece! I was looking for an HR piece with a darker sound but still maintaining a clean response. The jazz FL 9 was the answer!
