The Vandoren V16 Alto Saxophone Reed is the answer to the demands of American jazz musicians who desired a Java Reed with more wood. The V16 Reed has a thicker tip than the Traditional Reed as well as a longer pallet. With a brilliant and percussive sound, the Vandoren V16 Reed is best suited for funk or a bright jazz sound.
Single reeds are perfect for when you want to try a new style or size of reed without committing to a box of 10.
