This listing uses chamber 0, designated brilliant.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe traditional SMS French facing is shorter with a steeper curve. The M American facing is slightly longer and flatter.

Wider openings generally allow softer reeds. For beginners, a narrower opening can help produce a clearer tone and more consistent intonation. Compare this 105 opening with your current tenor mouthpiece and reed combination.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor reference, 100\/0 SMS identifies a medium-close tenor opening, brilliant chamber, and short facing.
