Harry HartmannFiberreed Soprano Saxophone Hemp Reed Soprano Saxophone Medium Soft
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Built for soprano saxophone, this Medium Soft Hemp Fiberreed combines a hollow-fiber core with hemp fiber and hardwood layers. Its dedicated cut is voiced around the character of the hemp material, with an earthy, dark bottom end and a full upper register. The important buying detail is strength: Hemp Fiberreeds run soft, so players moving from another Hartmann model are advised to choose one strength harder. That makes this a choice to select by playing feel as carefully as by its printed strength.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Soprano saxophone players seeking the hemp model's earthy low end and full upper register.
Consider the trade-offs
