Emil
Anello began working
with mouthpieces over three decades ago.
He learned the art of refacing from one of his early music
teachers, Robert Miller, who refaced mouthpieces by hand.
However,
as a veteran tool designer
of 35 years at the Square-D Company, Emil Anello appreciated the
importance of precision and accuracy. As a result, Emil designed a unique fixture to reface
mouthpieces, capable of tolerances to one
thousandth of an inch.
For
several years to come, musicians asked to have a chip removed from a
favorite mouthpiece, to have a mouthpiece facing duplicated, such as a discontinued mouthpiece, or to
experiment with different popular facings.
What started out as a nominal business soon grew in demand.
Emil Anello prepared to launch his own product line.
Through
several years of experience, Emil Anello learned the most
popular "facings" among musicians.
With this knowledge, he designed a mouthpiece line using only the
most popular facings.
From technical design and musical experience, Emil Anello has designed a
unique mouthpiece line that is popular and affordable.
Although "anello mouthpieces" remains a small business,
Emil Anello has refaced thousands of mouthpieces and sold even more.
Yet,
Emil Anello continues to give you the personalized attention that the
musician desires.
