D’Addario Organic Select Jazz Alto Saxophone Reeds - Filed, Medium, Strength 2, 3-Pack

Good consistent quality.

I played alto sax for 23 years in an Air Force jazz band. Clarinet is my primary instrument. I actually put my horns down for 10 years but came back to it all 5 years ago. I am currrently 1st chair clarinet in an outstanding 90 piece concert band. However, it has just been 5 months ago when I also returned to jazz band. I have been experimenting with numerouos mouthpieces and reeds during that time but have been pretty frustrated trying to find the best set up. I bought a box of the Select Jazz 2 soft alto reeds and was blown away (pun intended) by this reed. I have been a big Legere supporter on clarinet for a number of years and tried one with alto but it just wan't there. This Jazz Select reed is amazing and I would higly reccommend it. I got lucky with a 2 soft and it was the right reed. You may have to experiment to find your perfect reed. Just an fyi, I settled on a Myers #5 metal mouthpiece and love it as well. Both the hard rubber and metal are excellent jazz mouthpieces. Hope this helps. Thanks D'Addario!

My teenager prefers these to other known brands and the sound quality is much improved without as much chipping. He uses these both for jazz and concert music.

These were outstanding out of the box. Great quality. Advertised as 5 per box. But there were 10 when received. Wish reeds were cheaper. Like the good old days. But we could say that for just about everything.If you play sax, this is as close as you can get to maintenance free reeds.

I’ve been using Rico royals 2.5 for years but a friend suggested these when I was having bad luck with the most recent box of Rico’s. These are amazing! They work great right out of the box, doesn’t need much breaking in and I realized that they’re all natural. Not going back to Rico’s and I had been using them for 45 years!

Daughters loves these. We order often.

Love them
