Legere Classic tenor sax reed 3.5
Looking for a tenor sax reed with the practical benefits of synthetic material? The Legere Classic Tenorsax 3.5 is made from hard poly material and is designed to produce a dark sound. Its slightly thicker tip makes this synthetic reed feel a bit stiffer than other Legere synthetic reeds.
With a strength of 3.5, you get a specific level of resistance that suits players who know what reed strength they need on tenor saxophone. The transparent finish gives this Legere reed its recognizable look.
Why choose a synthetic reed for tenor saxophone
A synthetic tenor saxophone reed lasts much longer than a cane reed and keeps its flexibility for longer as well. Because of the precise manufacturing process and the use of poly material, the difference between two reeds of the same strength is very small or absent, which is useful if you want a consistent response.
Moisture does not affect this Legere Classic reed. You do not need to wet it before playing, which also makes it especially suitable for outdoor use, for example in cold or rainy conditions.
