Vandoren's Traditional Alto Saxophone Reeds have been a mainstay for woodwind musicians for over a century. These reeds deliver a pure, balanced tone coveted by students and professionals alike. Handcrafted from the finest cane, Vandoren reeds feature an ultra-thin tip for maximum vibration and projection. The result is a sound that's slightly darker and fuller than comparable reeds.
Superior Construction for a Superior Sound
Talk to any clarinet or sax player, and odds are, at some point in their career, they relied on Vandoren reeds. These reeds are found in instrument cases everywhere thanks to their exceedingly dense vertebral column and hand-selected cane. This combination produces a clear, resonant tone with rich overtones and a quick response.
A Reed for Every Playing Style
Vandoren offers their Traditional reeds in a wide range of strengths from 1 to 5 to suit different embouchures and playing styles. So whether you prefer a softer reed for jazz or a harder reed for classical, Vandoren has you covered. They also offer reeds in packages of 3, 5 or 10 so you can stock up or try different strengths.
