How Our Score Is Calculated

Product Description

For more vibration, a thicker heel with a longer palette is used.

Due to the thicker tip, the reeds have a deeper, richer sound with more body to the attack, resulting in longer lasting reeds.

Other strengths are also available.

To maintain freshness, each reed is sealed in a 'Flow Pack.'

Available in a ten-pack (SR6125).

Questions & Answers

On the tenor, do the v12s produce a dark, warm tone? Because I'm looking for a dark sound, I can't decide between the v12s and the traditionals. ?

For the past 30 years, I've been a Sav player. The v12 produces a darker, more rounded tone, and the reeds themselves are much more consistent. I get about 8/10 in a box that work well. You're not going to be dissatisfied with your life.

It was a pleasant surprise

4/5

I really like how these reeds have been cut. Long vamp and thick tip I've been playing La Voz for a long time. They have a cut that I like, but their consistency is terrible. These reeds are a lot more consistent and have a similar feel to them. The tone, in my opinion, is a little darker. They're also a little on the hard side, and I've gone through about 5 boxes of them. 3 out of 5 4 reeds in good condition, 1 reed in good condition There are two performers in this piece. On my setup, these aren't quite as good as La Voz, but given that I only get one, I'm not complaining. In a box of La Voz, you get three good reeds and at least three throwaways, which is a good compromise.
