Legere alto sax reed for jazz and light music
If you are looking for an alto sax reed tailored to jazz and light music, the Legere American Cut Altsax 2 is a very focused option. This synthetic reed was developed through a six-year research process to advance Signature Series technology and meet the needs of demanding jazz saxophonists.
In this version you get strength 2, intended for alto saxophone. The American Cut comes in a transparent finish and appeals to a wide range of players, from amateur to experienced jazz saxophonists.
American Cut profile with articulation, control and warmth
The character of this Legere reed comes from a completely redesigned profile and heart, combined with a shorter and wider tip. By moving material from the rails toward the center, the reed delivers a combination of articulation and control that you notice directly in playing.
The ultra-fine edges allow the reed to vibrate freely. You hear that in a clearly warm low register and a lively altissimo. Saxophonists who found the Signature series just short of the warmth and energy they wanted will find a different playing and tonal character in the Legere American Cut. At Magna Music, you can also count on personal advice from staff who are musicians themselves.
Who the Legere American Cut Altsax 2 suits
The extremely playable nature of this synthetic alto sax reed makes it attractive to a broad group of saxophonists. From hobby player to advanced jazz musician, the response is aimed at players who want easy articulation while keeping a firm grip on tone production.
If you play jazz or light music on alto sax and want a synthetic saxophone reed in strength 2, this Legere American Cut matches that use closely.
