Avel Sound Concept ASC Foehn Tenor Saxophone Mouthpiece Review

June 14, 2022 by Steve 11 Comments

Today, I am reviewing the Avel Sound Concept (ASC) Foehn model tenor saxophone mouthpiece made by Max at Avel Sound Concept Mouthpieces.  These are really reasonable priced, quality hard rubber tenor saxophone mouthpieces that, as you will soon hear, play incredibly well…..  The hard rubber ASC Foehn tenor sax mouthpiece I am reviewing today has a 7* tip opening.

Avel Sound Concept ASC Foehn Tenor Saxophone Mouthpiece

Here is how the Avel Sound Concept website describes the new ASC Foehn hard rubber tenor saxophone mouthpiece:

The Foehn is a dry, warm, down-slope wind blowing in the Alps.

This hard rubber piece has a medium-large round chamber and a customizable rollover baffle. It is a crossover between a Slant Sig and an EB. It has a medium sound with lush lows and powerful highs. This piece is fitted with a very responsive facing curve for projection and the right amount of resistance to push against for better control of the altissimo register. This piece is at ease in a variety of situations from big band to pop music.

Yeah, if you are like me, you probably don’t know what to do with the “The Foehn is a dry, warm, down-slope wind blowing in the Alps.”  Let’s just skip over that part of the description to the part sax players understand; hard rubber, medium-large round chamber, rollover baffle, lush lows and powerful highs, very responsive facing curve, etc……..

Avel Sound Concept ASC Foehn Tenor Saxophone Mouthpiece

The Avel Sound Concept Foehn tenor sax mouthpiece came well packaged and protected.  The Foehn mouthpiece is made of high quality hard rubber that is really shiny.  The shine of the mouthpiece was so brilliant that it made me question whether it was some sort of plastic or resin but Max assured me that it is indeed pure high quality hard rubber that he works hard to make shine.

The ASC Foehn mouthpiece tip, rails, table and baffle all look great.  The tip rail is thin and even and the tip matches up with my tenor saxophone reeds nicely.  The side rails are thin and even as well.  The sidewalls on either side of the baffle look to be straight for about an inch and then are scooped out as they near the chamber of the mouthpiece.

The roof of the chamber is a medium thickness and the chamber is what I would describe as a medium to medium-large chamber when compared to a typical large sized hard rubber Otto Link tenor mouthpiece chamber (ASC describes the Foehn mouthpiece as a medium-large chamber).

Avel Sound Concept ASC Foehn Tenor Saxophone Mouthpiece

The baffle of the ASC Foehn tenor saxophone mouthpiece is a pretty substantial rollover baffle.  The baffle travels at a medium high height for about an inch before it scoops down into the chamber.  For comparison, the baffle of the Foehn mouthpiece is higher and longer than a couple of Otto Link Early Babbitt Connoisseur tenor mouthpieces I have sitting on my desk right now.  The baffle is scooped from side to side as it travels down to the mouthpiece chamber.  Just from inspecting the generous baffle, my guess is that the ASC Foehn tenor sax mouthpiece would play with a nice amount of brightness and power.

Avel Sound Concept ASC Foehn Tenor Saxophone Mouthpiece

Although the chamber in the ASC Foehn mouthpiece looks a little rough in the photos, it feels smooth to the touch.  I think it just has that look from the work performed while making it and the interior of the mouthpiece was not shined up like the exterior of the mouthpiece was.

Avel Sound Concept ASC Foehn Tenor Saxophone Mouthpiece

The mouthpiece beak of the Avel Sound Concept Foehn tenor sax mouthpiece has a low profile to it that I really liked.  It feels very comfortable for me when compared to how a hard rubber tenor sax mouthpiece with a high beak profile feels.   Something about a lower beak profile on a hard rubber mouthpiece always makes me feel like the tone is a bit brighter and more powerful.  I believe this is because the vibrations more easily travel from the mouthpiece, through the narrow beak, and to my teeth and then ear.

Avel Sound Concept ASC Foehn Tenor Saxophone Mouthpiece

The Foehn tenor sax mouthpiece played great for me with a BSS (Boston Sax Shop) 2 1/2 reed.   That BSS 2 1/2 reed is usually too soft for me with 7* tip opening mouthpieces but the ASC Foehn tenor sax mouthpiece has a shorter facing curve of 47 which makes a softer reed feel a bit harder.  I actually like shorter facing curves of 47 for certain tenor sax mouthpieces because of this reason.   I have a number of other tenor sax mouthpieces with this shorter facing curve of 47 and it allows me to use a softer reed while still getting enough resistance when blowing that the reed feels harder and the tone more substantial.  My JVW (Jon Van Wie) Otto Link, Lamberson J7 and Retro Revival “Super D Double Ring Replica tenor sax mouthpieces all have shorter facing curves of 47 which I really love on those tenor mouthpieces.

Avel Sound Concept ASC Foehn Tenor Saxophone Mouthpiece

The Avel Sound Concept Foehn tenor saxophone mouthpiece played great for me. I found the ASC Foehn mouthpiece to have a beautiful brightness to the core sound that gave the high register a ringing and singing quality to the notes. I assume this brightness in the sound is the effect of the high rollover baffle and medium chamber.

The ASC Foehn mouthpiece had plenty of power and brightness when pushed as you can hear in the louder parts of the sound clip where I play more aggressively.  I believe some of the brightness and crispness is due to the ability to use a softer reed on the Foehn’s shorter facing curve.  The softer reed sounds crisp and the shorter curve gives it enough resistance so it doesn’t sound like a wet noodle like on other tenor mouthpieces with a longer facing curve on them.

Sometimes, like on my JVW Otto Link, the shorter facing curve can make the low register not as lush and thick sounding as it might with a longer facing curve but the ASC Foehn seems well balanced in that the low notes sound thick and full.  You can hear how the Foehn sounds so good playing on a ballad or laid back jazz tune.  The soft reed allows the low notes to have a lush and fat quality to them that makes them sound great to my ears.

The intonation of the Foehn tenor mouthpiece was excellent and the scale and range of the saxophone sounded smooth and even to me as I played.    The altissimo register was easy to play and I found the ASC Foehn mouthpiece to be expressive and easy to control.

I have included a long sound clip below with no effects and another short clip with reverb added so you can hear how the ASC Foehn tenor sax mouthpiece might sound on a live gig in a big hall or with reverb added to it while recording.

Avel Sound Concept ASC Foehn Tenor Saxophone Mouthpiece

If you like the sound and look of the Avel Sound Concept Foehn tenor saxophone mouthpiece, you can find them on the Avel Sound Concept website.  Believe it or not, at the time of this review, these are only $185 on the ASC website.   I always receive emails asking me what is a great mouthpiece that is also affordable and the Avel Sound Concept Foehn tenor sax mouthpiece fits that description perfectly.   I would have no problem playing this mouthpiece on a loud gig, with a big band or even with a sax quartet.  This is a great deal for a hard rubber tenor saxophone mouthpiece that plays this well and sounds this beautiful in my opinion.

If you are lucky enough to play a Avel Sound Concept Foehn tenor saxophone mouthpiece or have any other thoughts or comments, I would love to hear what you think in the comments below.  Thanks,  Steve

    Hi Steve,

    Thanks for reviewing my ASC Foehn 7* tenor mouthpiece. You sound amazing on it and your photos are much better than my marketing material!

    With regards to the first sentence of the description on my website, it’s just to explain the origin of the name. My mouthpieces are all named after a wind around the world.

    Cheers,
    Max- ASC

    Hi Steve,

    I’ve been playing Max’s pieces on sop/alto/tenor for some time; they are indeed the best ‘bang for buck’ I’ve ever experienced. I play all styles with them and feel comfortable getting all I need out of them in each individual musical situation (I don’t like swapping out pieces for different musical styles). Max at Avel Sound Concept is also the easiest human with whom to communicate about your needs and his refacing work is outstanding as are his original mouthpiece designs. As always, you sound incredible on this and all the pieces you review! I’ll leave a link to a short bit of a recording on one of Max’s refaced pieces; he’s done many for me and all of his work is incredible. Thanks for reviewing the Foehn!

    Thanks Steve. It has THAT sound! Also pretty warm core since the warmth even sticks out of my iPhone tinny speakers. I will listen to it on headphones / proper speakers later to have better understanding of the tone. I always thought I wouldn’t be happy with short facing tone which tends to not be as lush as let’s say 50 mm but I guess I’m wrong! This one sounds pretty balanced to me. Also would be hard to get that wonderful well-defined bright yet thick core of the tone without the shorter facing I guess. Great job Avel! I think if this can be in par with your Lamberson or JVW for tonal concept, that’s a real compliment by itself. Cheers.

      Thanks Arya! I am goad you like Steve’s recording on my design!

      A 50mm facing length is rather long. I would only consider this on a high baffle piece or on an elliptical curve with a high ellipse factor.

    From what I hear it is a great mouthpiece.

    Perhaps, if it were also available in tip opening 5 *, the sound could have more projection; as Dexter Gordon said about his mouthpiece:

    “… Actually this present mouthpiece of mine is relatively small. It’s just medium size a five-star. It’s been straightened out a little bit, but it’s not a big mouthpiece. It’s blows very free and gets a nice substantial sound. Most people are surprises because they think it’s much a much larger mouthpiece than it is. They think it’s maybe an eight or nine or something like that, but it’s not. So that’s why i say it’s projection that counts … “.

    (I report, with copy and paste, if legal, what is taken from the site:

    “https://www.saxontheweb.net/threads/rs-berkeley-legends-%E2%80%9Cdexter-gordon%E2%80%9D-thoughts.365884/page-2

    extrapolating, if legal, a comment from user Nicolas Trefeil who in response to user mrpeebee reports a statement made to him by Dexter Gordon, as Trefeil writes:

    Yes, it’s hard to find consistent and reliable data about mouthpieces used by great players. If I remember well I did read about Dexter’s 8* Otto Link in ‘Dexter Gordon – A Musical Biography’ by Stan Britt, but I could also have grabbed it from the liner notes on one of the many LP’s I have from Dexter.

    Here are some links:
    – Dexter’s biography: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1282114.Dexter_Gordon
    – Nicolas Trefeil setup of tenor players: https://www.nicolastrefeil.com/tenor-sax-player-s-setup
    – Old SOTW thread from 2011: https://forum.saxontheweb.net/showt…tups-Help-needed-from-SOTW-members-quot-quot/

    Nicolas Trefeil (see above for the link) states that Dexter used a Dukoff BD Hollywood metal 5* slightly refaced with La Voz Medium reeds.

    I’m not sure how reliable that is, because he is also not accurate about the mouthpiece Dexter used in the mid 40’s. That was an Otto Link Tone Master 6 (not a Four ****) which Dexter traded with Illinois Jacquet (who got Dexter’s refaced TM 4) when both played with Lionel Hampton in the early 40’s. That’s what IJ has stated on several places (also in the above mentioned biography of Dexter).

    Hello MrPeebee. I try to give good information on my web site, I can make some mistake, but the information from my website about Dexter Gordon mouthpieces is given by Dexter Gordon himself.

    “Actually this present mouthpiece of mine is relatively small. It’s just medium size a five-star. It’s been straightened out a little bit, but it’s not a big mouthpiece. It’s blows very free and gets a nice substantial sound. Most people are surprises because they think it’s much a much larger mouthpiece than it is. They think it’s maybe an eight or nine or something like that, but it’s not. So that’s why I say it’s projection that counts.”

    -from an interview in Crescendo Magazine of December 1962. (The picture of the article is showing him with is Conn and Dukkof mpc). He also says about the reed: La Voz, medium strenght

    Dexter Gordon say also in this interview that before the mpc is playing now, he played an Otto Link especially made for him during “The chase” era (1947) and until it got stolen around 1952.

    All the best.
    Nicolas Trefeil …“).

        Hi Max,
        First of all congratulations for the excellent sound, from how I perceive it via computer, of the mouthpiece.
        What is the cost of the custom model?
        Can you point me to a dealer in Rome where I can possibly (try) and / or buy it?
        If the dealer is not there, do you send cash on delivery, since I do not use bank means but only cash?
        Thanks for the info.
        Giuseppe.

          Giuseppe,

          The custom model is the same price as the standard model. All details available on my website. The onlyndifference is that a custom tip opening cat be returned.

          I do not have a reseller in Italy, sorry. Unfortunately, cash on delivery is not an option.

    Hi,

    Thanks to your review, I’ve been playing the Foehn for 2 months. It’s crazy how this mouthpiece sounds good for this price. It’s a very versatile mouthpiece but it’s kind of on a bright side of the sound spectrum though. I really like the dynamics I can get, playing softly and being able to scream is big plus for me. And don’t get me wrong, subtones and low notes are great. It reminds me a little bit of my Theo Wanne Slant Sig 2, they share the same low profile but the sig has a larger chamber. So far I’m very happy with my Foehn, it even has the name of the wind that was melting the snow off the mountain in my childhood.

    Hi.
    I bought one of these in an 8* around June/July time on the back of this review. I received it and put it in my draw. I was really enjoying the current set-up and I don’t like to change my kit about too much.

    So there it sat for 6 months or so until a couple of weeks ago. I attended a Cuban big band workshop and I felt my current set-up was too edgy so when I got home I got this piece out of the draw. It took only a few practice sessions and it sounded great! Kind of wished I’d done that sooner. It’s a great piece, love it, beautiful tone with still a good level of projection.
    Mostly the sound comes from yourself but this mouthpiece certainly helped me get that sound in my head. Looking forward to the next Cuban session

Hi Steve,

First, I want to thank you for all of your great lessons. They are like a “For Dummies” version of all the books on my shelf. The lessons break things down into manageable pieces, and give me the confidence that I’m practicing the right pieces. I’m starting to make progress.   Thank You,   Kim

Thank you for all the educational information you provide.  I am a classically trained musician.  Professionally, I am a 4th and 5th grade band teacher.  I have played piano and sax for many years, but now I am starting to gig out more. I have always improvised by ear in the past. I have gotten by with my strong sense of pitch, rhythm and melodic contour. However, I want to go deeper. I want to play with a greater variety of melodic and rhythmic ideas to pull from.  I have studied to gain a … Read more

Steve really changed my way of practicing: I got a whole lot of new ideas for my playing the tenor.  His lessons are really helpful, give a lot stuff to practice and give clear answers to complicated stuff.  Steve has a lot of humor and I wish I had laughed so much in my former days with the horn.  All topics, from Blues to Approach note are dealt with clearness that wet ones appetite to play and practice that great ideas.

I can’t say enough about my membership at Neff Music. Steve has taken the mystery out of playing the saxophone well and improvising both jazz and rock music. Like most struggling players I have a load of all sorts of books on my shelf just gathering dust. Books that I didn’t understand or know how to put to use…or just have the time to go threw them. Steve’s lessons really simplify things and he puts it in a way that I can understand. They inspire me to keep pushing and having him as my guide or… Read more

Your lessons on playing the blues is so clear . I have been through many books on blues playing and not one of them explains as clear as your lessons . Most of them say “Play the same blues scale over all three chords of a 12 bar blues ” Its very misleading .     Thanks

I have been a member of Neffmusic for more than a year now and have enjoyed every minute of it! I have not only been going thru the Dominant Bebop Scale lessons and book (OUTSTANDING!) but the mouthpiece reviews, solo clips and transcriptions are very interesting. Steve approach to beginning and intermediate improv have given me many new pathways to teach my high school jazz ensemble students. Congratulations Steve, great product!

I want to say something about Steve Neff’s series of lessons, Beginner Jazz Improvisation. For a couple of years I tried many beginner lessons and my problem was that there was a gap between lessons that were fairly simple and ones that I was not quite ready for and my progress stalled out. That problem was solved with the series Beginner Jazz Improvisation. He guides you step by step along the way and builds a foundation for learning jazz and blues. He leaves no question about what to practice … Read more

Steve,

I have played for many years and have enjoyed going “back to the basics” in some of your lessons!  You have such a gift for explaining concepts.  As I have gotten older, some of the basic things have gotten muddled because I just play, not knowing why.  As I refresh myself with “why”, it increases my confidence and expands my playing.  Thank you so much for using your gift!  You are a blessing!

Julia

Hello Steve, I’m getting so much out of your lessons and books, amazing how much one may think one knows, there is always a new frontier or new way to view something you think you had somewhat down. You have taken it all to a new level and am so grateful. Your lessons are so down to earth and understandable and clear!  Thanks so much Steve! Cheers, Eddie

Steve’s monthly lessons are entirely valuable. Without brow beating, he tells you all the stuff you deep down know you really should be working on, instead of just relying on the same old patterns. In spite of the fact that you’re taking a video lesson, Steve’s presentation is comfortable and “real”. In a little more than a year, he’s developed a library of lessons that seem to offer any player a lifetime’s worth of practice material. I’m just glad I stumbled upon it.… Read more

I’ve been a member of Steve’s site for about six months now and the difference it has made to my playing is immeasurable. The (many) benefits of this membership are that you can have lessons at time convenient to you, they work out A LOT cheaper than face-to-face lessons with a teacher of the same calibre and you can replay them ad infinitum. I don’t know how many times have I had lessons in the past where I’ve ended up covering the same concepts when really a ‘replay’ of the last lesson would h… Read more

I am a music book junkie and I have to say that your books are the most clear, user friendly, and helpful books I own.  They are my absolute favorites and I only wish I had them years ago.  I wouldn’t change a thing about the experience I had in acquiring my degree at Berklee, but my playing has perhaps grown more in the time I’ve spent buried in your books and lessons.  Keep up the great work!!!

Thank You Steve. I think that I will be busy for years. Thank You for your great contribution to jazz music. Your books, more than teaching “how to play jazz”, actually teach “how to speak jazz”. I wish I found your methods years ago.

Steve, just a note to say thanks.

I’ve been playing a long time, but your material, laid out in such a thoughtful way, helps me to understand concepts in a new and deeper way.

You are a true gift to the jazz community.

60 lessons and going strong,

I just started looking at my lessons and I have to say, dude you are awesome.  I ABSOLUTELY will learn from you!  I started the tenor about 1 ½ yrs ago and have since picked up an alto, and more recently a soprano.  I spend most of the time on the tenor, followed by soprano, and have only gotten to the alto a few times.  I think I’ll be sticking with tenor.  I’m having a great time and hope one day to play well enough to get regular gigs.  I’ve been playing keys for about 35 years (… Read more

Hey Steve, My name is Jason Freese and I play keyboards and sax in the band Green Day.  I grew up taking sax lessons from Eric Marienthal when I was a kid and got out of it for a long time. I ran into you on youtube while searching for sax stuff. I bought a whole bunch of your lessons and have been loving it! Thanks! Here is my wikipedia so you can see the albums I’ve played on….Thanks again. It’s sparked my interest in practicing again.   Jason

I am enjoying your style of teaching, and you’ve done a great job with the videos….good sound quality and well constructed lessons.  Balances the more guitaristic material found on the majority of guitar based programs.  Jazz vocab is what I’m all about at this point in the journey.  I especially dig the fact that you’ve studied with Bergonzi…helps me see his voluminous output in a more bite sized way.

Steve- I joined your site this month and have downloaded 4 lessons and also purchased your new book and video on diatonic patterns. I just want to say I am very pleased with your approach and teaching techniques. I am getting back into playing after laying off for some time. The information you offer on your site is of great value and I am enjoying being a member. Thank you for what you are doing for the saxophone community.

Just a brief note to compliment you on your teaching skills and in particular for the honesty of your lessons.  I am a returning alto sax player in my 50’s and I was looking for a no nonsense, straight to the point kind of guidance. I had intended to email you with a few questions regarding the use of the bis key but then I noticed that there was a lesson on that specific topic and after viewing it,  all my questions were answered.
