Otto Link tenor sax mouthpieces have been a benchmark for jazz tenor players for decades. Over many production iterations, their sound has shifted, giving rise to several distinct designs. The new Otto Link Florida Hard Rubber Tenor Sax Mouthpiece delivers a brighter, more cutting tone while retaining the essential “Link core.” As of 2026, all Florida Rubber models have been refined under the Otto Link / Theo Wanne partnership, with Theo Wanne perfecting their design.
Who is Theo Wanne? Theo Wanne is widely regarded as one of the world’s leading mouthpiece makers. Known for innovative designs and precision manufacturing, he produces some of the highest-quality mouthpieces available. When JJ Babbitt (the company behind Otto Link) aimed to elevate the Otto Link tenor line, they partnered with Theo Wanne to bring enhanced consistency, precision, and tonal refinement to the Otto Link New York models.
4 Models — One Soul
The new Otto Link / Theo Wanne rubber tenor mouthpiece lineup preserves the classic Otto Link core sound while offering four distinct baffles, chambers, and facings to help you achieve your best tone.
Models:
New York — Inspired by the original New York “Tone Master”: lowest baffle and largest chamber for a dark, mellow sound.
Tone Edge — The iconic Otto Link core tone with enhanced modern response.
Florida — Features a higher rollover baffle for a brighter edge than the Super Tone Master.
LA — A new design with a smaller chamber and the highest baffle, delivering maximum projection and attack with a brighter character.
Why Choose the Florida Model? The Theo Wanne Otto Link Florida model delivers a rich tonal core with outstanding responsiveness. While all Theo Wanne designs perform exceptionally, the Florida model is the most popular among players because of its balanced character. It preserves the full color of tone most musicians want while adding the distinctive attack and punch that define the Florida series.
Features:
Bright, hard rubber mouthpiece designed to let your tenor sax soar above any ensemble
Small chamber provides focused airflow for a controlled sound even into the altissimo range
Light resistance and immediate response from a high roll-over baffle and 2.66mm tip opening
Hand finished and play tested at the JJ Babbitt headquarters in Elkhart, IN
Material: High-grade hard rubber for a rich, focused sound and minimal overtone harshness.
Facing: Tone Edge design offers smooth response, evenness across registers, and easy control of timbre.
Response: Fast articulation and even intonation from low chalumeau to altissimo.
Build quality: Durable construction with precise craftsmanship for consistent playability and long life
Made in the USA from the finest dense ebonite
Manufacturing Method: CNC machined
Supplied with ligature and cap
Manufacturing Details:
Step one – Babbitt casting
These new models will retain their distinctive "Otto Link" sound. Mouthpieces begin production at Babbitt using their traditional casting techniques, original molds, and proprietary hard-rubber formulation. This process produces a raw casting that is then sent to Theo Wanne.
Step Two – Perfected by Theo Wanne
At Theo’s Washington facility, each Otto Link blank is finished on high-end CNC machines that carve every fine detail to exacting standards. The tip opening, side rails, baffle, reed window and table are all precisely machined. The new models feature a perfectly flat table instead of a concave one, improving reed seal and enabling better performance with a wider variety of reeds, including synthetic options.
Step Three – Finishing & Buffing at Babbitt
These machine-finished blanks are returned to Babbitt for final buffing and finishing. The Babbitt team, trained by Theo and his crew, follows a new, exacting standard to ensure the finish. The result preserves the traditional Otto Link appearance while delivering the precision of modern machining.
This combination delivers the Link mouthpiece tone with the unmatched reliability and consistency of Theo Wanne. Players won’t need to try dozens of mouthpieces to find “the right one” — every piece will play like that great mouthpiece straight out of the box.
Tip Opening Guide: (Model # = Inches)
Below is a full list of tip openings available:
6* = 0.095”

No other sizes are available for the rubber model in the Florida variant at this time. Special order custom options may be available, contact Prof’s to check availability and production times. The focus on the 4 tip options above allows the manufacturer to concentrate on improving stock reliability for these new models and streamlining production to keep the mouthpiece affordable for customers.
