I play a lot funk,smooth jazz,blues, and soul music so I need a mouth peice that gives me a dark smooth tone and I want the mouth piece to be a metal one, some say I should get otto link and Im thinking about getting 3 of those for my alto, tenor, and soprano saxes but I would like some advice from the group, also what kind of reeds should I use because I play on Vadorean and there good for classical music but are they good for jazz? Confused

Vandoren reeds will darken your tone signifcantly.

As for metal pieces, I have no clue,

well do you know what kind of reeds will brighten your tone

Reeds alone aren't going to significantly alter the sound you're getting from your horn and MP setup. However synthetic and Rico Plasticover reeds will add a bit of buzz, edge and oomph.
