Signature 3.0, according to the Legere website's strength comparison chart. The number 75 is the most similar to the Vandoren 3. At that point, they should be extremely close - The Legere 3 is just a tad more difficult. If you were to look at their "Classic" or "Traditional" reeds, the 3. In fact, the 5 and the 3 are nearly identical. Vandoren has five points. The reason for this is that the Signature reeds differ slightly from the "Classic" line. courtesy of the Legere website - "The clarinet reeds in the Signature Series are perfectly balanced.

If you return the reed in its original packaging and include the bill of sale, Legére will exchange it. However, Legére is the only way to do it. At Legére, Tim Elvy serves as the point of contact.
I'm not sure what's going on here. On three occasions, I've ordered the Legere European for clarinet. Alto Sax Legere has received two orders. They're something I use all the time. It's impossible to praise them highly enough. I wouldn't have ordered a Tenor Reed because I don't own a tenor sax.
In fact, considering that all Amazon prices are determined by competition, it makes perfect sense. You only see one of the three sellers. 5 is a low-cost item with poor customer feedback. They're willing to sell here for a small profit, if any at all - This could account for the negative feedback. Shipping quickly, well-protected in BOXES (not an envelope) to prevent reed damage, and other factors all play a role in pricing. Buyers have a variety of options, including purchasing directly from the Legere website, but settling for the lowest price may leave you disappointed. The fees charged by Amazon are also quite high. All of the aforementioned factors are taken into consideration when determining pricing. Some sellers strive to be the cheapest option at all times, and as a result, they frequently vanish from the market. Providing excellent service to customers is costly.

After spending a lot of money experimenting with different strengths of reeds a few years ago, I finally found the v21. Lepic reeds should be avoided at all costs. a new ligature, and a new mouthpiece - anything that could be the factor that was having a significant negative impact on both my playing and my love for my instrument. I was so frustrated and disheartened. br>br>Last summer, someone suggested I try Legere reeds, but as a purist, I didn't think they could possibly compare to a cane Reed, and I didn't want to spend so much money just to try them out when I knew I wouldn't like them. br>br>Fast forward a year, and I finally bit the bullet and ordered a 3 3/4 legere out of desperation. Well, consider me surprised because the legere reed's responsiveness, depth, and richness of tone astound me from the first note I played with it. In my 70-year-old Buffet's finicky range, the legere reed made a *significant* difference in tone quality and intonation. br>br>I honestly didn't think I'd be able to play on a plastic reed - ever - However, I'm blown away. I've spent a lot more time practicing and a lot less time muttering swear words under my breath because I'm no longer rummaging through 15 different reeds or having to swap out my reed multiple times during rehearsals in the hopes that the next one will be more cooperative. Vandoren, please accept my sincere apologies. I thought we'd be together for the rest of our lives, but I'm calling it quits on you.
75th Anniversary Signature (not Euro) has the same hardness feel as any of my clean-sounding cane reeds of equal strength (Vandoren varieties of 3). Gonzales has a FOF of 3 and is ranked 5th. 75). Signature (rather than Euro) is also the same size, shape, and length as Euro, so it works well with all of my ligatures. Not to mention that it sounds great, is easy to control, and I'd add that it probably removes some of the bite/shrill/overtone from some notes, implying that it plays darker or with a different timbre. I'm still not sure what all those technical terms mean. Signature EUROPEAN reeds are not comparable to my cane reeds in terms of strength, size, or shape. I placed an order for three. It's a 75 European Signature that's wider than a cane, shorter than a cane, and plays more freely (like my best 3). I'd give it a 3 because it has no reed. 25). European number three. 75 rushed out of the gate like a rogue stallion. It can play very loudly, but it can also play very softly, according to my experience. Simply take command of the breeze. It has the same range as a hard reed but blows more freely than a soft reed. Actually, it's a lot of fun. Regarding the intonation of all reeds. I'm not going to add anything to the discussion. Because it's difficult to tell if you don't have a secure embouchure. All of my cane reeds have a lot of differences. I'm using a M13 lyre with a profile of 88 for this. Good luck with your experiments! Playing is a liberating and enjoyable experience!.
I most likely have an overabundance of cane reeds for woodwinds, as do most musicians. After comparing many Legere strengths to similar cane strengths, I've come to the conclusion that I shouldn't waste time when I can just pick up a good synthetic reed and practice, practice, practice, while still working on the "Honeydew List" and performances. I'm not sure if any of this will be shared, but I'm grateful for the positive feedback from the listeners. My chromatic scale warm-ups from chalumeau (with thumb) to continue up (without thumb) are greatly aided by the Legere. It's fantastic that using a Legere reed instead of a cane makes this possible. Great Things Can Happen In Life!.
Reeds for Legere are now available. I've never had a defective one, and they play all the time, have a great tone, and aren't affected by moisture, heat, or humidity. When compared to cane reeds, this is a significant difference. I'm never going back to using a cane reed.
Legere reeds are one of my favorite types of reed. They have a nice sound, seem to last forever, and make hitting those high notes almost effortless.
Cane reeds are what I've always used. The ones I use are becoming increasingly difficult to come by. So I decided to give these synthetic reeds a try. I've only had a few weeks to play with it, but I'm already impressed.
There's a problem. I was a skeptic at first, but I'm a big fan of these. There's something off, though, because I sometimes struggle to maintain a good, firm embouchure focus.
Excellent sound, comparable to a good cane reed but without the unpredictability. I'd suggest getting a reed that's 1/4 inch thicker than cane.
