Vandoren SM713 AL5 Optimum Alto Saxophone Mouthpiece

Description

The conception of this series was the fruit of research on both external shape (particularly the beak) and sound, in order to meet the needs of today’s saxophone players.
Available models for Alto Saxophone in this series include:

• AL3: With its exceptional roundness, the ultimate classical mouthpiece.
• AL4: A little more open than the AL3, while maintaining the sound aesthetic of the OPTIMUM series.
• AL5: This mouthpiece has all of the same sound qualities of the AL3 with a slightly larger tip opening. It offers a perfect balance with number 3 reeds.

The AL5 has a more open design. 1.68mm tip opening, medium long facing, with exceptional roundness. It has the same qualities as the AL3, with slightly arger tip opening. It offers a perfect balance with a 3 strength reed.
