Thought I'd try something new. All but one reed was warped in this box. I'll stick to LaVoz

Although I needed to work these reeds a bit before playing , all five are usable and consistent. I was using Diadarrio reeds # 2med so I ordered a 2 in these. But I think they are a bit harder bc I needed to shave them down.

It just takes about 20 minutes to break in and then it has for me the perfect tone and flex and everything else just right. Can't go back to any other reed now! I play a # 2.

I have for decades played the same setup with orange box Rico’s. Recently the consistency from the orange box was absolutely horrible, I’d be lucky to get 2 decent players that lasted for more then a gig out of a 10 pack.I follow Jay on YouTube and figured I’d give these a shot.The 2.5 better sax reeds play stiffer then the orange box by about 15% a number I just made up. However they were all players out of the box and after break in will last. Additionally they provided a depth of sound I’ve been missing for some time.Just try them out and keep in mind they may run a touch on the hard side compared to the orange box.

Save your dollars...been playing saxophone for almost 60 years, 40 of those at a professional level. These reeds have a stuffy dull sound. I would compare these reeds to a basic Rico Reed. For a quality professional sound stick with La Voz or one of the variants from the Boston Sax Shop. These reeds underwhelmed me. I was anticipating the excitement of this product line. No WOW factor here!

Tenor reads. Really impressed. They have a quick, clean response, a solid core sound and great 'vibe'. Good out of the box, but 2 out of 5 warped after a few soaking/drying cycles and won't seal (I haven't tried to re-flatten the backs, but my experience is you can only do so much, and these would need too much). I live and play in Colorado, where it's very dry, so this is a problem with most reads. Other reeds I've had luck with on a Dukoff and TW Lakshmi: Gonzalez and Françios Louis. EDIT... (12/20/23) 2ND box, not so good. Almost like a different cut. Either the cane was a different "size" or the cut changed, but the vamp was more blunt shaped on all, and off-center on 2 out of 5 reeds, with the rails being uneven as well. Also, this box felt dull, without the core and pop of the first box.
