The Euro cut Eb reed has been a game changer for me - it's the same on every gig, which makes me much more confident on a notoriously demanding and difficult instrument.
The French cut is brighter than I expected, also I think I shd have gone for a size 3.0 or higher. I think I prefer my signature cut better as I have been using that more than the French cut
After trying 30 cane reeds that didn’t blow well, I gave up and changed to Legere Signature for concert and jazz band. Finally the reed frustration is over! Am also trying a French Cut for concert band mouthpiece and I like the subtle darkness of it.
My setup is a 2.5 Legere European Cut with a Vandoren BD5 mouthpiece. The combination out performs any other setup I’ve tried with my bass clarinet. I also use Legere reeds with my soprano clarinet. The reeds are ready to play right out of the box, last more than ten times longer than bamboo reeds, and quality is consistent.
After buying this reed i went to the Olympics for clarinet thank you guys so much you just made my career i make 42 million dollars per year now this 50$ made all that money
I purchased the Alto Sax reed to play on the Alto Clarinet. It works amazingly well. I was sold on it with the first note I played. It brought even MORE life to the Alto Clarinet!!
Love the reeds, but I find lately that you can get wide variation in the strengths. Some of my 3.5 strength reeds are softer than my 3.25 reeds. Also, soprano sax reeds work better for me on clarinet.
