Vandoren ZZ Tenorsaxofoon 2,5 doos met 5 rieten - Riet voor tenor saxofoon

My wife enjoys playing tenor sax, and says as soon as she tried one of these Van Doren reeds, she could feel the improvement compared to her Rico Royals.She says these ZZ reeds have a good quality to them, with a rich, smooth sound. I think she's a convert!Although they are more expensive than the Rico Royals, she says the higher price is worth it for the improvement in her playing.

I am fairly new to tenor sax, and I prefer reeds without a lot of resistance, and I favor a brighter jazz sound. I have experimented with Rico Plasticover reeds, Rico La Voz, Rico Select (unfiled), Vandoren ZZ, Vandoren Java (filed and unfiled), traditional Vandoren reeds, and even a Legere Signature Series reed. I found the ZZ tenor sax reeds to be consistent, ready to play out of the box, and easy to play using a classic style ebonite mouthpiece as well as a more open mouthpiece. (MAY, 2015 UPDATE: I TRIED FIBRACELL REEDS WITH MY T75 JUMBO JAVA MOUTHPIECE---- THE FIBRACELL REEDS ARE AMONG MY FAVORITE REEDS NOW. THEY LAST LONGER THAN ANY REED THAT I HAVE TRIED AND THE QUALITY AND SOUND IS CONSISTENTLY GOOD).Here is my experience with the various reeds that I have tried over the last sixth months:I have been able to achieve my best sound with Vandoren ZZ and the Rico Select Jazz (unfiled) reeds, and these reeds didn't require sanding to get them to play well. The Rico Jazz Select (unfiled) can be a little stiff, so I would visit the Rico reed website to see their strength comparison chart ([...] to help you select the right strength for you. I found the traditional Vandoren reeds to be similar to the ZZ, so either will play well.I just received an order of Vandoren Java reeds, and I found the Red Javas (filed) to be resistant and not bright, so I am hoping that they will become easier to play with break-in. I also just tried the Java Green (unfiled), and they were a little less resistant than the Reds, and they were more fun to play than the Java Reds. (UPDATE 5/2015: THE JAVA GREEN READS WERE VERY EASY TO PLAY WITH MY NEW T75 JUMBO JAVA MOUTHPIECE----VERY PLEASING SOUND TOO). I would describe it as a deeper sound. I will try another box of Java Greens in the future, but the Java Reds did not work for me at all.Rico Plasticover reeds play easily and last a long time. The Plasticovers are enjoyable because you don't have to wet the reed, and they play well right out of the box. I have heard a lot of good things about the Rico La Voz reeds, but for me they were just OK. The box that I received contained many reeds which were warped and required sanding to get them to play well. I used 400 grit wet/dry sandpaper to flatten out the La Voz reeds (I set the sandpaper on a truly flat surface and slid the reed over the sandpaper, and only sanded the portion of the reed that sits on the table of the mouthpiece) ---sand very little. The Rico Jazz Selects (unfiled) played well out of the box and have a lively sound, so I would go with those over the La Voz reeds (realizing the price is higher).The Legere Signature Series plastic reed might work for marching band or if your sax has to sit for a long time, drying out your reed. However, I didn't care for this reed because the highs wanted to breakup, and I didn't have that problem with any other reed. For Marching Band or gigs (whenever you are worried about reeds drying out), I would give Rico Plasticover reeds a try.Different reeds will work for different people, depending on the mouthpiece, ligature, embouchure, etc., but I hope this might be helpful to other new players.
