So far, I have only tried two of these reeds because I'm waiting to use the other reeds with a new mouthpiece. On a Yamaha 4C mouthpiece they definitely play much better than stock Vandoren strength 2 reeds.I feel better able to blow freely into the instrument.

Great sound
Drew aus Berlin 05.07.2019
I have been using these particular reeds for the last 5 years or so as a professional musician.
(Vandoren reeds for over 30 years)
Sound is good... a nice easy response. In combination with my metal mouthpiece, it gives a warm and buzzy sound.
Most of the time I don't need to do too much adjustment. They just work straight out of the wrapper.

Well made but not my type of reed
RubenD 04.01.2022
Don't get me wrong, it's a well made reed. It just wasn't really for me as I personally didn't like the playability and the sound of it. This however is very subjective so I would suggest to test some different reeds and see which one you like best.

Cool Jazzy Reed!
Anonymous 16.04.2016
Very nice sound, I'd say "aggressive" and "powerful", but I wouldn't recommend for very beginners since they tend to be a bit "hard" compared to other reeds on the same dimensions. At least that's how I felt it! Anyway, if you want a quality reed with nice "jazzy" sound I recommend it!

Great jazz reed
ErikF 19.11.2013
It suits me very good. I play an Aizen Jazz Master 7*. Just remember that they are sold in single packages, not in boxes, so if you order 1, you will only get one reed, not one box of reeds...

Top Quality Reeds
Stephen148 15.07.2024
An excellent quality reed at the perfect thickness for me. Some may need a small amount of rubbing down, which is easily done with the right tool. Once this is done, and the reed is stored correctly in its case, it will not warp and blow well for months.
