Legere tenor sax reed for jazz and light music
The Legere American Cut Tenorsax 2,75 is a synthetic tenor sax reed developed for jazz and light music. This reed builds on Signature Series technology and comes from a six-year research process aimed at the needs of demanding jazz saxophonists.
With a 2.75 strength, you get a version that matches your preference within this series. The transparent finish gives this Legere reed its recognisable look.
American Cut: articulation, control and warmth
The character of the American Cut comes from a completely redesigned profile and heart, combined with a shorter, wider tip. By moving material from the rails to the centre, this reed offers a combination of articulation and control that you notice immediately in practice.
The ultra-fine edges allow the reed to vibrate freely. You hear that in a clearly warm low register and a lively altissimo, the high range above the normal register.
Who this tenor sax reed suits
Its highly playable response makes this synthetic sax reed suitable for a wide range of players, from amateur to experienced jazz saxophonist. If you already play a Signature series reed but miss a little warmth and energy, the Legere American Cut is a strong alternative.
