La VozAlto Saxophone Reeds Medium Box of 10
1/8
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Box of ten unfiled alto sax reeds in medium strength. La Voz uses strength names rather than numbers, with Medium sitting in the middle of the range.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Alto players who prefer an unfiled cut for jazz playing
- Buying in bulk instead of single reeds
- Players who find numbered strengths inconsistent across brands
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Tenor, soprano, or bari players — alto only
- Anyone needing an exact numbered strength to match a school requirement
- Beginners who need a clearly softer reed to build embouchure
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Unfiled cut
Bark left intact below the vamp. Gives more resistance and a thicker sound than a filed reed.
Detail 03
Box of 10
Lets you sort and rotate reeds. Cane varies, so a box gives you several playable ones to break in together.
Detail 04
Alto saxophone
Sized for an alto mouthpiece table. Will not seal properly on a tenor or clarinet.
Detail 05
Cane construction
Response and strength vary between reeds in the same box. Break in a few at once and rotate them.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01La Voz strengths are named, not numbered, so they will not match another brand exactly
- 02No reed guard or case included
- 03Soak before first use and store flat to stop warping
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01What number is La Voz Medium?
La Voz uses Soft through Hard instead of numbers. Medium falls around the middle, near a 2.5 to 3 in numbered brands, but it is not an exact match.
02Filed or unfiled — which should I get?
Unfiled reeds like these give more resistance and body. Filed reeds respond faster at low volume. Jazz players often prefer unfiled.
03How many reeds are in the box?
Ten.
04Will these fit a tenor sax?
No. These are alto reeds. A tenor mouthpiece needs a larger reed to seal against the table.
