Theo Wanne GAIA 4 Clarinet

A big leap forward in clarinet design, the GAIA 4 achieves a fullness we always wished the clarinet could have!   The GAIA 4 clarinet shows an innovation long overdue for the clarinet.
 
“With total confidence I can say Theo has created the best clarinet mouthpiece in history! This mouthpiece has dimensions of sound that brings out and crystallizes every aspect of the clarinet. Many people who have not enjoyed the clarinet before….will now love the instrument! With this mouthpiece the clarinet has been re-birthed to a new level!” 
– Tim Price (Aretha Franklin, Bob Weir, Lynyrd Skynyrd)
 
Though initially based on the great vintage mouthpieces by Frank Kaspar, Henry Chedeville, and Kal Opperman, Theo  took his decades of mouthpiece design knowledge to maximize the airflow of these designs to create a clarinet mouthpiece unique in the world.    It takes air, and fills the instrument unlike anything every made before.    This is truly a leap in clarinet mouthpiece design, and has a breadth of tone so big only a Bass Clarinet could compare.
 
Theo Wanne™ clarinet mouthpieces are manufactured to the same legendary standards as the rest of the Theo Wanne™ saxophone mouthpiece line.   They use the world’s most advanced manufacturing, CAD designs, and full five-axis machining, and every mouthpiece is made from a solid bar of the highest quality hard rubber right in his factory in Bellingham, USA.
