I've been playing the saxophone for many years, but my lips hurt almost all the time.
I had deep scars on my lips, and I wanted to cry with severe pain every day.

I got a sample from Yo Matsushita and tried Parafit, but I didn't know much difference at first.
But at that time, I was practicing a lot of radio with soprano saxophone for the concert, and I realized that it was easy to put out if the Flageolet was parafit, which was difficult to put out until now.
After the concert, I felt that I wanted to blow more using Parafit.

At that time, I was practicing for hours for the Adolf Saxophone International Competition, but the pain began to be reduced and I was able to practice as much as I wanted for a long time, and I was able to practice fluo without problems.
Parafit helped me prepare for the competition.
I'm still using Parafit, but the pain in my lips is gone!

Parafit is recommended for those who have a sore lips or want to blow a lot of Flageolet!

It's much easier to produce low to high notes than other mouthpieces, and it's also very comfortable to blow.
They fit well over your teeth, so you won't have to worry about wearing them until you're done practicing.
I am also using it at international competitions with friends around me!
