Claude Lakey

For more than half a century, Claude Lakey's legacy is continuously alive through the company he founded, from its humble beginnings in a corner of a music shop in 1962 to the established brand that it is today. As a jazz musician himself, Claude Lakey strived for ways to better his craft, which included pioneering a better mouthpiece he handcrafted himself. Today, the family-owned company offers high quality, all-American made mouthpieces, compass ligatures (featuring Boa® Technology's patented reel system and aircraft-grade steel laces), and music accessories. Claude Lakey is proudly endorsed by musicians such as Frank Gratowski, Jeanette Harris, and Jeff Kashiwa.
