The Reserve series of saxophone reeds combine a classic style with modern playability. The reeds feature D'Addario's specific cane which undergoes thorough checks to ensure each reed has a premium quality. The reeds are made using a digital cutting device, ensuring consistency and a high quality every time. The Reserve's 5-pack is ideal for musicians who are playing frequently or gigging. This series' tonal characteristics include a generally warm sound with balanced frequencies and a stable pitch. The spine of these reeds has been weighted to contrast the narrow rail, resulting in increased dynamics. The Reserve series is ideal for advancing musicians requiring a reliable, strong sounding reed for their saxophone.
These reeds are available in a variety of reed strengths. The strengths range from 2.0 to 4.5. With this range of strengths you are able to precisely pick the best one to suit your style. Softer reeds are often easier to play softer through. They speak more easily and produce a bright sound. Harder reeds produce a darker and louder sound. However they are harder to blow through and often need a well developed embouchure in order to get the most out of them. They are great for high register playing though. There's no right or wrong reed strength, it's all about what works best for you so experiment and you'll find the right one.
