Jody Espina had been developing Classical clarinet and saxophone mouthpieces for two years before he purchased Chedeville in 2018 from Dr. Omar Henderson, a scientist and amateur clarinet player who wanted to recreate the sound of the original Chedeville mouthpieces made before World War II. Omar amazingly achieved his goal of duplicating Chedeville Rubber after extensive research, scientific study and prototyping in the lab. Once Jody had access to original Chedeville mouthpieces and state-of-the-art digital scans, he was able to combine those designs with his own designs from “Chedeville Rubber”. The results are stunning. All Chedeville mouthpieces are handcrafted at the JodyJazz/Chedeville factory in Savannah Georgia, made with new world technology and old world craftsmanship to the highest standards of excellence.
