Welcome to Lomax Classic Mouthpieces

In eleven short years LOMAX CLASSIC MOUTHPIECES has truly lived up to our motto: "World Class" Mouthpieces, "World Class Artists!
We are very proud to be able to call many of the finest woodwind artists around the world our customers and our friends!
I want to share with you several of our newest products that we are very excited about.
First, our new Mouthpiece Measuring Kit! For many years Mouthpiece makers as well as teachers and professionals have been limited in their ability to make careful, accurate, and repeatable measurements of the tip openings of woodwind mouthpieces. The idea behind our new dial tip gauge is not original but we have  refined it to produce a measuring tool that is accurate to less than 100th of a millimeter. Our new gauge is  very easy to use and has a great feel in the hand!
This tool is a "must have" for anyone interested in being able to make very accurate and "repeatable" measurements of any woodwind mouthpiece. We have also worked hard to make it affordable for teachers, professionals, as well as the serious maker and refacer. A very special thank you goes to Carl Votaw and Votaw Tool, of Springfield Missouri. Carl is a master tool maker and a personal friend who I have known for more than forty years. Carl took our idea and turned it into a reality. You can visit the Votaw Tool website by clicking here. They manufacture many high quality tools for the repair of musical instruments.
Second, our newest mouthpiece for clarinet, the L' Opera.  This piece combines the very best qualities of the german sound with fantastic response and blowing ease! Large slurred intervals are much easier than other mouthpieces and the ability to start the sound from nothing with great control is greatly enhanced.
I designed this mouthpiece with my dear friend Francois Kloc and all the other
wonderful people at Buffet Crampon in mind as a tribute to their wonderful new clarinet, the Tosca!  If you are currently playing on any of the Vandoren M series
mouthpieces you need to try the L' Opera!
Finally, if you are a classical saxophonist please try our new "D" series mouthpiece for alto sax. This is our warmest and darkest sounding classical mouthpiece yet!
Remember, if you play one of our mouthpieces you are more than a customer, you are a special friend and a part of our family!
Musically yours,


Michael A. Lomax

         
   
WHAT MAKES A GREAT MOUTHPIECE!
   
         
" A great mouthpiece enables a fine clarinet to be played at its full potential. It complements and enhances intonation, tone and response. A great mouthpiece should enhance the qualities of a good reed and be 'reed friendly', allowing average reeds to produce superior results! Finally, a great mouthpiece must be replaceable! Nothing lasts forever. Young students as well as professionals deserve the very best equipment possible! "

EVERY LOMAX MOUTHPIECE is play tested and adjusted for intonation, articulation, tone quality, and response, before shipment. Each of our mouthpieces is marked with a serial number and its measurements are recorded so that we may be able to duplicate it accurately if the customer so desires.

At LOMAX CLASSIC MOUTHPIECES we believe that the proof of a great mouthpiece is in its performance, and we invite you to contact us for a risk free trial.
