The Morgan Runyon Custom Soprano Saxophone Mouthpiece brings back a classic Runyon design using original, new-old-stock Runyon mouthpiece blanks. After the Runyon Company ceased production, Morgan Mouthpiece Company acquired a large quantity of these unused soprano blanks and now individually hand-finishes and faces each mouthpiece.

Runyon used this design for its well-known Custom and Couf soprano saxophone mouthpieces, models associated with players including Grover Washington Jr. and Dave Koz. Unlike the original production mouthpieces, which were machine-finished, the Morgan Runyon Custom receives a precision hand-finished facing from Morgan's experienced mouthpiece craftsmen.

The result combines an authentic vintage Runyon blank with Morgan's hand-finishing and facing work—a limited opportunity for soprano players to purchase this classic design in unused condition.

About These Original Runyon Blanks

These are genuine unused Runyon blanks that were manufactured years ago and remained in storage after Runyon ceased production. Because this is a finite supply that cannot be replaced, we do not reject otherwise excellent blanks solely for minor cosmetic imperfections. Your mouthpiece may show a small scratch, scuff, molding mark or other superficial blemish from manufacturing or long-term storage. These cosmetic variations do not affect the facing, performance or playability of the mouthpiece.

Try It Risk-Free

Free USA shipping! Try your Morgan Runyon soprano mouthpiece for 10 days. Shipping time does not count toward the trial period. If it isn't right for you, simply return it for a refund, less a $20 restocking fee for U.S. customers or $25 for international customers.

Shipping & Returns

Trial Policy

Choosing the right mouthpiece is personal. That's why Morgan Mouthpiece Company offers a 10-day trial period, giving you the opportunity to play a Morgan mouthpiece on your own instrument, with your own reeds and in your normal playing environment.

Your 10-day trial begins the day you receive your shipment. Shipping time to you does not count toward the trial period.

Custom Size Orders

Custom-size mouthpieces are made specifically to your requested specifications and are not eligible for return or exchange.

Because a custom-size mouthpiece is made specifically for you, please contact us before ordering if you have questions about the tip opening, facing, or other specifications. We are happy to help make sure your custom mouthpiece is right for your needs.

Warranty: Our standard warranty still applies to custom-size mouthpieces. If a custom mouthpiece has a performance issue caused by a manufacturing defect or workmanship problem, please contact us. We will work with you to resolve the issue, including repair or replacement when appropriate.

This policy applies to custom-size orders only. Standard Morgan mouthpieces remain eligible for our normal trial and return policy.

Compare Up to Three Mouthpieces

Not sure which model or tip opening is right for you? You may purchase up to three mouthpieces in different models or sizes for a side-by-side trial.

Keep the mouthpiece you love and return the others during the trial period.

If you keep at least one mouthpiece, you'll pay just one flat restocking fee on the mouthpieces you return:

  • USA customers: $25 total
  • International customers: $35 total

This flat fee applies to the return, not to each individual mouthpiece, as long as you keep at least one mouthpiece from your comparison order.

Taking Care of Trial Mouthpieces

Please keep all trial mouthpieces in clean, like-new and unmarked condition.

  • Use a tooth patch on each mouthpiece to prevent bite marks and scratches.
  • Remove the tooth patch before returning the mouthpiece.
  • Do not sand, refinish, alter or modify the mouthpiece in any way.
  • Return the mouthpiece with its original packaging, ligature, cap and any other included accessories.

Mouthpieces showing bite marks, scratches, damage, alteration or excessive wear may receive a reduced refund.

Restocking Fees

Restocking fees depend on whether you purchase a single mouthpiece or several mouthpieces for comparison.

Single Mouthpiece Orders

If you purchase one mouthpiece and return it for a refund:

  • USA customers: $20 restocking fee
  • International customers: $25 restocking fee

Comparison Orders — Return All Mouthpieces

If you purchase multiple mouthpieces for comparison and decide to return all of them, a restocking fee of up to $20 per mouthpiece may apply.

Mouthpieces returned in clean, like-new condition will not be charged more than $20 each in normal restocking fees. Mouthpieces showing bite marks, scratches, damage, alteration or excessive wear may receive a reduced refund.

How to Make a Return

Please return your mouthpiece during the 10-day trial period using a trackable shipping service, such as USPS or UPS.

Customers are responsible for return shipping. Morgan Mouthpiece Company does not provide prepaid return shipping labels.

Please pack the mouthpiece carefully and include all original accessories and packaging.

Refunds will be issued to the original payment method after the returned mouthpiece has been received and inspected. Applicable restocking fees or deductions will be subtracted from the refund.
