Syos Tenor Saxophone Mouthpiece, Spark Model, Carmine Red

Syos, a collaboration between leading acoustics specialists and experienced musicians, designs and manufactures saxophone mouthpieces that combine science, creativity, and durability. Their mission is to enable every musician, regardless of skill level, to play with ease and accuracy.

For beginners, Syos crafts simple mouthpieces that facilitate progress and help them discover their ideal sound, providing ease of playing and joy in practicing. For more advanced players who know their sound preferences, Syos designs custom mouthpieces to help them achieve the desired tone more effortlessly.

The Syos Originals line represents the pinnacle of the company's acoustic expertise, offering a streamlined collection of easy-to-play mouthpieces for all types of saxophones. Players can choose from a dark (Smoky), balanced (Steady), or bright (Spark) tone, and instantly get the sound they were promised, without the need for any metal components.

The Tenor Spark mouthpiece, for instance, features a high step baffle and medium chamber, making it free-blowing with a clear, powerful sound that carries far. This mouthpiece is perfect for rock, funk, or other edgy modern music, providing ample volume and brightness. It is compatible with regular ligatures from various brands, including Selmer, Vandoren, Yamaha, Jody Jazz, and Silverstein.

Syos mouthpieces are played by some of the best musicians around the world, such as jazz saxophone legend Joe Lovano, Tivon Pennicott (Gregory Porter, "Late Show with Stephen Colbert"), Scott Paddock (Eros Ramazzotti), and Daro Behroozi (Lucky Chops).

When selecting the perfect tip opening for your Syos mouthpiece, the company provides a chart to help you find the equivalent to your current mouthpiece, as Syos mouthpieces are designed to be easy to play, allowing you to increase the opening size slightly without any trouble.

Syos was founded by Pauline Eveno and Maxime Caron, two acoustics experts trained at IRCAM in Paris. Their goal was to offer mouthpieces with customizable sound characteristics and aesthetics, and the project quickly gained a prestigious international following.

Syos has developed an exclusive 3D printing material called SCAL3D, in collaboration with leading French research laboratories. This proprietary material allows the creation of durable, comfortable mouthpieces optimized down to the micrometer, making Syos mouthpieces 100% made in France and in high demand worldwide.

Sold in 50 countries, Syos mouthpieces delight musicians and their audiences with their unparalleled projection and sound definition, maximizing both playing and listening pleasure. This revolution in saxophone mouthpiece design is taking place in the heart of Paris, where Syos has recently inaugurated a new production plant in 2021.
