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
No filed shoulder below the vamp. Generally reads as darker and slightly more resistant than a filed reed.
Detail 03
Bb clarinet cut
For soprano Bb only. Alto, bass, and Eb clarinets use different reed dimensions.
Detail 04
Box of 10
Natural cane varies. Expect a few strong performers, several usable, and one or two duds per box.

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, medium-soft, medium, medium-hard, and hard instead of numbers. Medium lands roughly where a 2.5 to 3 numbered reed sits.
02Should I switch from a strength 2 to these?
Only once a 2 feels too easy and your tone goes thin at volume. Jumping to medium too early makes high notes hard to sound.
03Are these good for jazz?
The unfiled cut gives a darker, thicker tone with more resistance, which many players prefer for jazz and small-group work.
04Will these work on a bass clarinet?
No. These are Bb soprano clarinet reeds. Bass clarinet requires larger reeds cut for that mouthpiece.
