Legere Bb clarinet reed strength 2
If you want a Bb clarinet reed that lasts a long time and feels consistent from reed to reed, the Legere Classic Bb Clarinet 2 is a practical choice. This synthetic reed is made from hard poly material and is designed for Bb clarinet.
The Classic line from Legere is known for a dark sound. Its tip is slightly thicker than other Legere synthetic reeds, which makes the reed feel a bit stiffer.
Why choose a synthetic clarinet reed
Compared with cane reeds, a synthetic clarinet 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 nonexistent, which is useful if you want predictable response.
Moisture does not affect this Legere reed. You do not need to wet it first to make it flexible, and that makes it especially suitable for outdoor use, for example in cold weather or rain. At Magna Music, you can also get advice from staff who are musicians themselves if you want to compare different reed types.
Legere Classic series
The Legere Classic is the brand’s most affordable line, making it an accessible way to get acquainted with synthetic reeds. This version has strength 2 and a transparent finish.
For clarinet players who want to try a synthetic reed without immediately moving to a more expensive series, this is a sensible first step for lessons, rehearsal or outdoor performances.
