  • Try for yourself
Style: Strength 2.5
Reviewing something as personal as reed selection is not a reason to buy or not buy reeds. I have been playing for 20 years. I recently decided to switch up my setup on my bari. I purchased a new open tip metal mouthpiece and the other brand of reeds I was using was not cutting it. I first tried the Vandoren Java and found I didn't like the sound. So I tried the ZZ's. They are perfect. The box I got I only had one reed that wasn't good. Out of 5 that is a really good ratio of good to bad reeds. However, word of warning. Everyone is different. What works for me might not work for you. Also, don't just get reeds because someone else says, "These are the best!" My best advice is to try multiple manufactures, multiple types, and multiple strengths before settling on what you like best. ... show more

  • Perfect
Style: Strength 3
I bought these for my college jazz band and they are wonderful! They help give my sax a richer jazz sound.

  • Big Sound
Style: Strength 3
these reeds are perfect for jazz, blues and Big Band sound. they are a little loud for a concert band type of performance. I had three out of the box perform concert ready and the other two were ready with a little manipulation.

  • Great Reed
Style: Strength 4
Great for the Baritone Sax. I'm in Marching band and we practice a lot. This reed is a huge difference to the regular vandoren's I've played or Rico's in the past. I will be buying these from now on. Also Amazon has a much better price than local retail stores.

  • Perfect for my son's baritone sax
Style: Strength 3
My son says he loves these reeds. The sound is so much better than with the last reeds we bought him. He loves playing the bari sax, anyway, but now he loves it even more--if that's possible. They came in way before they were estimated to and were exactly how they were described. Would recommend these to anyone who plays a baritone sax! ... show more

  • but I've fallen in love with these
Style: Strength 3
I used to use traditional strength 3 bari reeds, but I've fallen in love with these. The response is similar to traditional in my opinion, but the projection of the ZZ reeds is incredible. Perfect for jazz.

  • Great to use for your instrument!
Style: Strength 2.5
I like the way it helps my instrument sound. Very durable and well made.

  • Reed shaped
Style: Strength 3.5
They're pretty good, sounds pretty similar to regular blue box reeds but ever so slightly punchier if that makes any sense. They have a pretty fast break in period, about 3ish hours so if thats a thing for you then these are definitely your thing.
