Legere alto sax reed in strength 2
If you want an alto sax reed that lasts a long time and responds consistently, the Legere Classic Altsax 2 is a strong option. This synthetic reed for alto sax is made from hard poly material and comes in a transparent finish.
Within the Legere Classic range, the tip is slightly thicker than on other Legere synthetic reeds. That makes this sax reed feel a bit stiffer. Its construction is intended to produce a dark sound, which gives this model a clear identity within the range.
Why choose a synthetic reed
Compared with cane reeds, a synthetic alto saxophone reed lasts much longer and keeps its flexibility for more time. Because of the precise production process and the use of poly material, the difference between two reeds of the same strength is very small to none, which is useful when you want consistent response.
Moisture does not affect this Legere reed. You do not need to wet it first to make it flexible, and that is especially practical for outdoor use, such as in cold or rainy conditions. Strength 2 also makes this Legere Classic a low-threshold way to get acquainted with synthetic reeds for alto saxophone.
