Size: Strength 2


Pattern: Alto Saxophone Reeds


Features

  • Traditional reeds are known for their excellent response in all registers, allowing a pianissimo attack in even highest notes.
  • Extremely flexible, allowing the legato or staccato execution of large intervals while maintaining a richness of tone that gives body and clarity to the sound, which is a hallmark of Vandoren reeds.
  • Traditional reeds are available for all clarinets and saxophones in various strengths.
  • Every reed sealed in 'Flow Pack' to ensure freshness.

Description

This reed is designed to produce a quality of extremely pure sound due to a very thin reed tip (the area of Reed with maximum vibration), being balanced by a solid vertebral column (more cane in the area which climbs gradually to the heel). These reeds are recognizable by a straight line to delineate the limit of the area of bark. The favorite reed of classic saxophonists worldwide since marcel Mule, it has always been (and is still) used with equal success by many players.

  • Pleased With the Upgrade
Size: Strength 2 Pattern: Alto Saxophone Reeds
Relatively new to the sax and have been using Rico reeds from the start. I’ve been using these (Vandoren) for a while now and it’s not even close. The quality of these is above and beyond. A measurable difference in my overall tone and just the durability of the reed. They just feel right. From now on, this brand will be my go-to for reeds. I can easily justify the slightly higher price of these reeds when comparing the two one after the other. I am glad that I took the risk to buy these. ... show more

  • They are packed and sealed individually to keep quality
Size: Strength 2 Pattern: Alto Saxophone Reeds
Great reeds for beginners! They are packed and sealed individually to keep quality. Sound is also good, at least for me. Those saxophone things are quite expensive in my opinion so I don't have much room to test different types of reeds. These Vandoren reeds last long so I believe it is worth the value paid for them. ... show more

  • Great Reeds! My new favorites
Size: Strength 2 Pattern: Alto Saxophone Reeds
I started on these reeds 30 years ago. Moved away from them about 25 years ago to Superials, Lavoz. These days, I usually play the green and red Java reeds. Never again. These sound so much better! I get a bright contemporary sound on a ARB 6, without any unwanted "synthetic buzz". Just clean contemporary sound. It was that last touch I was looking for. Very happy! Just wished I had tried them again sooner. ... show more

  • Reliable Reeds with Great Sound
Size: Strength 2 Pattern: Alto Saxophone Reeds
These reeds are solid and consistent. exactly what I was expecting from Vandoren. They play well right out of the box and have a nice, full sound. I like that they feel reliable for practice or performance, and the strength 2 is just right for me. Overall, they do exactly what they’re supposed to do without any surprises. ... show more

  • Still Amazing quality, easier to play
Size: Strength 2 Pattern: Alto Saxophone Reeds
I used these on saxaphone when I was in middle school and my son does now but was having trouble with size 3. We got the size 2 and he said it was like he unlocked sound he never could make before and was able to articulate very easily. It's worth every penny.

  • Awesome!
I'm a beginner and this was my first box of reeds ever. I'm also somewhat of a germaphobe. The fact that I've taken up an instrument that involves so much saliva is a HUGE leap for me in progressing toward becoming a bit more normal. That said, I really love individually wrapped things. I don't know if all reeds are sold like this, but individually wrapped products are among the greatest things on this earth, and I was really happy when I opened this box! I opened a few of them and, according to my instructors (various youtube videos and online forums), all the reeds I opened were in good shape. I haven't opened all 10, but it seems that none of the ones I've opened so far need to be sanded or thrown out. I've heard a lot about how all boxes of reeds with 10 or more in them have at least a few that must be thrown out or worked on, so maybe I just haven't opened those yet, but so far these look great! They taste ok too :P Oh yeah, they work well too. Of course I don't have much experience and I'm still having some trouble with this goose that keeps sneaking into my saxophone every now and then, but the reed certainly seems to be doing its job. It only took me a few seconds to create my first note and there's been absolutely no problem with the reed - I don't even have to think about the reed itself at all - just about how I'm using it :) ... show more
