The secret to excellence starts with the material - Chedeville rubber. To ensure that the new rubber is identical to original Chedeville mouthpieces, Chedeville needed to reverse engineer the rubber. They did this by analysing legendary pre World War II mouthpieces by using some of the most advanced forms of digital scanning. By doing this, they can be 100% sure of the chemical makeup, and therefore be assured that they were starting with a true Chedeville "blank". Often copied, but never equalled, if you don’t see the symbol CHR on the mouthpiece, then it does not have Chedeville rubber.
In 2018 Jody Espina, President and Founder of JodyJazz Inc, purchased Chedeville from Dr Omar Henderson. Omar's goal was to recreate the sound of the original Chedeville mouthpieces made before World War II. He amazingly achieved his goal of duplicating the Chedeville Rubber after extensive research, scientific study, and prototyping in the lab. By using state of the art design techniques with the use of 3D modelling and CNC multi-axis machines, all Chedeville mouthpieces are crafted to the highest quality and then finished by hand.
