Henri Selmer Paris S80 C* E♭ Alto Saxophone Mouthpiece
The timeless standard for classical focus, tonal purity, and acoustic consistency.
The Henri Selmer Paris S80 C* is the world's most widely recognized and played classical saxophone mouthpiece. Considered the benchmark standard by band directors, private instructors, and orchestral artists for generations, the S80 is celebrated for its warm, centered, and disciplined voice.
The signature hallmark of the S80 is its precision-machined square cross-section chamber. This unique acoustic geometry directs the airflow into a focused, highly controllable air column, producing exceptional response, crystal-clear articulation, and rock-solid pitch stability from low B♭ through the palm keys. Machined from premium hard rubber (ebonite) in Mantes-la-Ville, France, the S80 C* provides the ideal balance of gentle resistance and immediate tonal feedback.
