BEHN™ Tenor Saxophone Mouthpieces
Innovative design meeting historical sounds
The BEHN™ ARTIST Mouthpiece brings back the amazing sounds of the legendary Short Shank Soloists of the mid-century.
The ARTIST produces a strong super resonant sound which will serve players looking for an authentic tenor voice with a bold character which can blend, subtone, or be assertive as you desire.
ARTIST's true "church window" arched chamber, gentle concave baffle contour, and tip rollover are classic design elements of the great Soloist mouthpieces of the past. But BEHN rubber adds so much more. You'll experience uncanny resonance with stunning power, precision, and nimble handling. This mouthpiece just goes. It'll make you AND your audience smile!
The BEHN™ CLASSIC Tenor Saxophone mouthpiece produces a sweet resonance and warm sound which is inspired by the classic greats of the 20th century.
With the Classic mouthpiece you can play classical or jazz as your artistic preferences may be. The Classic is a great mouthpiece for anything from the concert band to the swing band.
Behn's innovative S-Curve baffle design creates resonance and tonal depth, and Behn's large elliptical chamber creates a large core sound with warmth and character.
BEHN™ Pure Vibe Mouthpieces
The collaborative vision of Brad Behn, Quamon Folwer, and Marvell Carpenter
Pure Vibe is the result of a collaboration of friends: Brad Behn, Quamon Fowler, and Marvell Carpenter.
When we all met a few years ago we quickly became friends. It was a natural thing for us to work together to produce saxophone mouthpieces. With BEHN's manufacturing skills and Quamon and Marvell bringing amazing saxophone artistry into the mix, the results were immediately evident that something special has occurred. Not only are our mouthpieces unique, special, and very well received, we've had a blast in the process of designing prototyping and manufacturing them. Every mouthpiece we make comes from our collective hearts.
BEHN™ Rod Rubber II
BEHN™ Rubber II is our latest creation. It blends the purest compound, designed for optimum resonance, with modern manufacturing techniques. The result is a sweet and warm sound with the improved response and resonance that BEHN™ is famous for. We believe this is the best sounding modern rubber option available. BEHN™ Rubber II is used in all our Saxophone mouthpieces.
BEHN™ Pure Vibe TITAN Mouthpieces
The collaborative vision of Brad Behn, Quamon Folwer, and Marvell Carpenter
Model 1: This our MB Tribute Mouthpiece design. If features a long step baffle which at the mid point of the chamber angles downward to meet the bore. The chamber is VERY long, the window is also longer and a tad wider. Rails are narrow. All of that makes for a super easy playing, free blowing and rich sounding mouthpiece. This model is very flexible, and offers a wide field of options - if you have only one mouthpiece, this is a great option because it is so versatile. It's got a lot of color in its sound, allowing you to subtone or to resonate with a super core - at will, you can turn on a dime as it is a very nimble, quick handling mouthpiece. Made from our very special BEHN Proprietary Rod Rubber, you get the most resonant rubber available; it offers more sonic energy, and an amazing indescribable array of colors.
Model 2: similar to Model 1 however the bore is cut deeper into the chamber. The back baffle is steeper leading to the cavernous end-bore. This slightly darkens the sound and adds a touch more depth and working-resistance. Made from our very rich sounding BEHN Rubber II.
Model 3: has a similar long-bore concept of Model 2, however the baffle is arced from tip to the bore with a gentle and uniform convex contour. This baffle shape provides more depth, richness and warmth. It is the darkest of the three TITANS. Made from our very rich sounding BEHN Rubber II.
