The ULTIMATE Tenor REED-PACK

The large range of reeds can initially be somewhat intimidating. In the face of so much choice were now giving sax players the opportunity to try out a selection of reeds with the sax.co.uk REED-PACK.

Another small confusion is the variance between each manufactures approach to grading strength. Vandoren 2.5 does not compare with D’Addario 2.5 which does not compare with Hemke 2.5 for example. Even within the same manufacturer, there are variances between the graded strengths; a Vandoren Traditional 2.5 will be much harder than a Vandoren ZZ 2.5, which is a little bit softer than a Red Java 2.5 and so on!

Because of this, we have tested and bundled together a selection strengths that are all relative to each other. In a reed pack at strength 2.5 for example you may see some strength 3 and 3.5 of other models. These are all relative and are of the same actual strength in accordance with our own professional testing and customer feedback!

The pack includes 1 of each:

Rico– Royal, Jazz Select (Filed), Plasticover, Hemke, La Voz

Vandoren– Blue, Java, Red Java, ZZ, V16
