Vandoren V16 Alto Saxophone Reeds (Box of 10)

Product Information

V16 Saxophone Reeds

Launched in 1993 to answer the demand of some American jazz musicians (a
JAVA with even more wood)
Thicker tip than the traditional Vandoren reeds and a longer pallet
Sound: more brilliant, more percussive, particularly well adapted to all the new
styles of music

Phil WOODS:
Nelson Hill gave me a Vandoren V16! He said, Try it, you'll like it. I tried it. I like
it! Eureka! At last, a sensible reed! They feel good and the percentage of usable
reeds is incredible. Somebody is paying attention and I sleep a little better
knowing that! The base is thicker giving my old, stretched ligature a better grip
and the intonation, always a Vandoren tradition, remains true and spot on!
