What matters in use
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 01
In Beechler's numbering the larger the number, the wider the tip opening. M7 sits below the M8.
Detail 02
The bore and shank are cut for a tenor neck cork. It will not seat on alto or soprano.
Detail 03
The inlay marks the model line. It sits on the body and does not affect how the piece plays.
Detail 04
Above stock-mouthpiece territory, below custom hand-faced work. A step-up piece rather than a final one.
Detail 05
Facings are consistent across the line, so you can move up or down a number later without relearning the whole piece.
Final check
Product questions
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
Tenor saxophone only. The shank is sized for a tenor neck cork and won't fit alto, soprano or baritone necks.
Only if it's a tenor ligature sized to this body. Ligatures are not interchangeable across mouthpiece shapes, so measure or try before assuming.
The facing number. M8 is the more open of the two; M7 is the tighter tip opening and generally takes a slightly harder reed.
No. Reeds are bought separately, and you'll want to try a couple of strengths against this facing before settling.
