Harry HartmannFiberreed Alto Saxophone Hemp Reed Alto Saxophone Medium
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Made for alto saxophone, this medium Hemp Fiberreed uses a hollow-fiber foundation layered with hemp fiber and finished with hardwood layers at the crown. The hemp-specific cut is intended to bring out an earthy, dark character in the low end while keeping the high register full. That makes it a focused option for players who want the same reed to cover both ends of the horn’s range. Its strength runs softer than other Hartmann models, so account for that when ordering.
