I had tried a 'plastic' reed years ago, and had poor results. Six months ago, a bass saxophonist suggested I try the Legere reed, and I'll absolutely never go back to fussing with a cane reed again. I so appreciate not having to stick a piece of wood in my mouth now. The Legere fits under my VanDoren Optimum ligature very well. With cane, I'd start playing a concert, and halfway into the first number, my reed would stop playing. Now I have NO worries, other than dropping my Legere on the floor and wondering where it is! So pleased, I bought another two when they went on sale.

I really, really like my Signature 2.0 reed. But I moved up to a 2.25 hoping that it would improve the sharpness of my intonation. Sadly, the 2.25 turned out to be just a bit too stiff for my mouthpiece and I've gone back to the 2.0. The Classic and European versions just don't play with my mouthpiece. So, I'm glad that I'm happy with the 2.0 Signature.

This is the perfect reed for me. It’s my second one and i’ve had the first one for many years.

As a young bass clarinet in jr high I can confidently say this reed has not only made my performance better but also has made life much easier as a bass clarinetist I highly recommend these reeds not only for advance players but also intermediate musicians looking for a better reed

Friends have told me how fabulous these reeds are and I finally decided to give you a try. Wow, exceeded my expectation. Happy New Year!
