from 2624 reviewsHave tried many synthetics and normal reads. Super impressed with how responsive and dark the French cut is. It's my favorite read now and plays wonderfully. Strongly recommended!!!!!!

I didn’t know what to expect when I ordered these reeds but I can honestly say that I’m converted to plastic reeds. And the fact that they are Canadian is just the icing on the cake! I will never go back to wood again!!
I've been using Legere French Cut reeds for a while now, and I'm thoroughly impressed! The consistency across each reed is unmatched—whether I'm practicing or performing, I always know I can rely on them for a smooth, even response. They’re durable, so I don't have to worry about them breaking or losing their shape. The tone is rich and full, and they allow for easy articulation and flexibility. If you're looking for reeds that perform well over time and maintain quality, Legere French Cut is definitely the way to go! Highly recommend!
I love the tone, response and durability! No more bamboo for me!
very responsive, free blowing, not fighting intonation
I had the same reed before and it lasted for a very long time. I guess that I wore it out by playing so much. I put this new reed on and it was perfection! It played easily and I had no trouble with notes in all ranges. Thank you.
I am returning to playing after 40 years, and reds sure have changed. I tried Legere after a recommendation (1/2 lower than I was playing), and my sound has improved greatly, and I seem to be playing more easily.
This reed allows me to generate very warm sound with a wide range of the dynamics and solid response. Unlike the wooden reed, I can keep the same sound anytime.
As a first impression, it's really easy to blow, yet, the sound is tight enough. I feel my breath is directly converted to the sound. The reed itself is a bit shorter than regular clarinet reeds. I also like this unique appearance!
I really like the American cut 3.5 reeds for jazz on my soprano, alto, or tenor sax. For classical alto, I prefer the French cut 3.5. I started using these reeds while playing in the pit for a musical production, when instrument changes had to be quick. Now, they are all I play on!
My 12 year old son loves this reed compared to traditional one. He plays it 5 days a week. Thank you for making this product!
I h ave been playing cane reeds on my baritone sax for over 40 years, and it was always a challenge to find consistently good reeds. Some worked well for a few sessions but soon lost their edge. I never had this challenge with my clarinet reeds, but I think this was due to the bari reeds being so much larger. Regardless, I reluctantly tried out the Legere reeds (beeing a cane reed purist) and was pleasantly surprised by how well they played, and most importantly, the consistency. It's great to have a reed that is always good to go, and responsive for my playing needs.
I’ve said it all before; Legere reeds are terrific! I use them on all of my horns now: soprano, alto, tenor, baritone, clarinet, Eb clarinet and bass clarinet. Thanks for a great product!
I have been using Legere reeds for over two years and absolutely love them. The consistancy of the reed is what I was mostly impressed with. My latest purchase was the American Cut for the Tenor Sax and its tone varries with different mouthpeices giving flexibility depending on the genre you're playing.
This reed sounds the upper register fat better than a cane reed for me. The overall sound clarity is better as well. I’ve only been playing with this reed for a week or so. I am hoping for superior life from this reed as compared to a cane reed.
