Saxophone Reeds

Saxophone Reeds are an integral part of the instrument in order to create the desired sound. Generally made from bamboo cane, all reeds come in different strengths, ranging from 1 (weaker strength more suited to beginners) right through to 5 (tougher and designed for professional players). As well as that reeds vary in shape and size, which give a warmer or a more articulate sound. As well as that, sax reeds come in different sizes for soprano, alto, tenor and baritone saxophones.
