D’Addario Woodwinds, Rico Saxophone Reeds, Alto Sax, RJA1025, Strength 2.5, 10-Pack

Q: Getting my old Conn alto "shooting star" fixed up, relearning how to play after decades. What would be the best reed "strength" for getting back in?

I started playing sax again after 60 years and now with bad lungs. I've settled in on RICO 2.0. I can get the sound I want and still breathe.

Q: Where are these made ands what chemical are they soaked in?

The cane comes from France and the reeds are made in the US. There are no chemicals involved in the process.

Q: Buenas las cañas son para tenor o para alto porque en la imagen sale ls foto y dice alto. Gracias

Las cañas son para saxofón alto.

A Quality Reed That Works!

I recently purchased an Alto Sax to begin playing again after a 60 year hiatus. The Sax came with one new reed that just didn't feel right, or sound right. I bought the 3 pack of Rico's figuring I'd give them a try. As soon as I stuck one in my mouth to moisten, I knew immediately I had the correct reed. I don't even know the brand of reed the Sax came with, but for now on I'll stick with the Rico. I have a VERY Long Way to Go in my quest to relearn the Saxophone but at least I am no longer handicapped with a cheap reed. Rico to the rescue!
