Wow!
Wayne Beatty 03.02.2020
Got these to try and wow! They are good. The difference in response and how they opened up the sound of my metal mouthpieces was incredible... Only thing is... They feel a little bit stiffer than others. I would maybe drop down a half strength if trying them for the first time. Good product!

Decent choice for anyone
Lukeas 14.09.2023
These reeds are overall a decent choice, works for any of your needs, but it's not the best, for the price you could do better, or maybe it's just my personal preference. They are sometimes a bit dull sounding, and the consistency between the quality of the reeds could be better, but they will work. They aren't that expensive, I'd say just give them a try and see if they work for you, for a while these were my go to until I discovered other reeds, which granted are a lot more expensive but in my book it's worth it if it makes the playing more enjoyable.

Personally I found these reeds to be far too soft. Played on a 7 tip opening, there is just far too little resistance to create anything other than loud honking noises, however this is probably due to the combination of reed and mouthpiece. For players who choose a much open mouthpiece, like a 9 or 10 tip opening, this would probably be an ideal reed choice, as I found the same reeds half a strength up a perfect choice for jazz playing.
