Frederick L. Hemke reeds provide the dark tone favored by many classical and traditional jazz saxophonists. The design is especially well-suited to traditional, round-chambered mouthpieces. French filed for freedom of response, especially in the low register, adding clarity to the tone and making soft attacks easier. Available in boxes of five. • Professional-quality reed for classical and jazz applications • Shorter vamp for dark tone • Balanced, slightly thinner tip for quick response and articulation • Premium grade cane for consistent response and playability • French filed for flexibility and fast response
