What a mouthpiece! I don’t know how you guys do it but this new mouthpiece is better than I’d hoped for. After breaking my original Syos “Freak show”mp bought a few years ago I was afraid I would never replace it with something that plays the same. But you’ve done it. I can achieve everything that my first mp was capable of and more, from Jazz to theatre and classical to even playing over the top of a big band. Add the Syos ligature and I don’t know why but it becomes even freer to play compared to my expensive Vandoren Optimum ligature.
Amazing job! Love your work

P.s Thank you so much Sylvie for your customer service making the purchase such a seamless process.

This is actually a review for a tarogato mouthpiece Syos made for me. As one might imagine, tarogato mouthpieces are not easy to come by. My tarogato came with a couple, which were okay, but I was interested in getting one custom made to get the kind of response I wanted. Madeline did an excellent job of creating a piece to my specifications (1.52 mm tip opening, high baffle, medium chamber), which proved to be fantastic. This is just what I was hoping for, and it has become my primary tarogato mouthpiece. Thank you, Syos!

Satisfait.... si le bec ne casse pas une nouvelle fois !

It's a brilliant mouth piece. I play mostly 1st/2nd trumpet pieces in a big band, and without a mic its very hard for a lone clarinet to cut through. This mouth piece has great projection, beautiful, strong tones, especially in the upper registers and stabs are a breeze. It does exactly what I need it to do. Thankyou for you expertise.

My new Syos Clarinet Mouthpiece is great. It is free blowing with a sound that blends well in a concert setting and speaks beautifully in a solo setting with a sound that almost floats on air, but yet can pierce like an arrow when needing bite and power. It is consistent in sound throughout all registers and there is depth to the tone. I continue to be amazed at how Syos can listen to your descriptive words and then build a mouthpiece that does what you want. Thank you Syos.

I opted for a slightly darker, more free-blowing clarinet mouthpiece. And it feels absolutely wonderful, dynamically even across all intervals with a fast response and satisfying sound subjectively. The issue has been that the material simply doesn't record as well as my more conventional hard rubber pieces. The tonal texture is relatively coarse, not as smooth as hand-finished mouthpieces. That's not to say Syos doesn't have something here. It's just that without hand-finishing, there is an absence of the psychophysical (read: human) aspect to the perceptual experience.

Hope that helps!

Je suis très satisfait du Bec sur mesure commandé chez Syos.
J'ai pu faire varier différents paramètres jusqu'à arriver au son que je cherchais.
Seul bémol, j'ai parfois eu la sensation de déranger la personne que j'avais au tel lorsque je lui expliquait les "retouches" que je voulais tester sur le bec.
