D’Addario Reserve Bass Clarinet Reeds

Traditional radius, longer vamp.

A thick blank, filed reed that offers great projection, featuring a medium tip thickness for warmth and core of sound, a traditional tip radius for ease of response and articulation, and a longer vamp for increased tonal flexibility.

Designed for those clarinetists looking for a reed with a dark sound. These reeds have more wood in the heart. They are more scraped in the shoulders, thus producing a deep low register. These reeds are made on computer run equipment (CNC). 5 Reeds per box. 

Superiority proven over many years, these reeds suit all styles of music.

The principal acoustic qualities are :

Excellent response in all registers, even allowing a pianissimo attack of the highest notes. Flexibility allowing the legato or staccato execution of large intervals.

This special Signature cut Synthetic reed is know for a deep rich tone. Available in half and quarter strengths for more accurate matching to your mouthpiece. One reed per package. 

The V21 reed utilizes the conical shape of the 56 rue Lepic combined with the profile of the V.12 and is designed for players looking for warmth and depth of sound while still achieving immediate response.
