Your 110/2 M configuration

This setup pairs a 110 opening with chamber 2, designated round, and the M facing. Chamber size and baffle influence edge and brightness. More baffle produces more edge: chamber 0 is brilliant with the most edge, chamber 1 is bright, chamber 2 is round, and chamber 3 is mellow.

SMS denotes the shorter French facing with a steeper curve. M identifies the slightly longer American facing with a flatter curve. These terms describe facing curve length rather than the actual sound of the mouthpiece.

Choose a tip opening for your setup

Tip opening measures the gap between the reed tip and mouthpiece tip in thousandths of an inch. Wider openings generally permit softer reeds. A narrower opening can help beginners produce a clearer tone and more consistent intonation. Compare this 110 opening with your current tenor mouthpiece and reed combination.

For reference, 100/0 SMS denotes a medium-close tenor opening, brilliant chamber, and short facing. This listing is specifically for the BLS404 110/2 M version.
