Made from a specially developed composite material, this reed offers the same acoustic behaviour as natural cane without the need for preparation. It is moisture-resistant, warp-proof, and designed to deliver reliable strength and stability over time.
The VK1 reed also lasts significantly longer than traditional reeds, making it a great choice for players looking to reduce replacement frequency. Maintenance is simple, as the reed is washable and can be disinfected, providing easy upkeep. Additionally, its hypoallergenic properties make it a safe option for all musicians. Whether practising or performing, this reed ensures excellent articulation, projection, and a consistent sound.
Vandoren saxophone reeds are available in a range of strengths to suit different playing styles and preferences. The VK1 synthetic reeds offer strengths that correspond to subdivisions by thirds of the typical half strengths found in traditional cane reeds. This precise system allows players to find a strength that provides the perfect balance between response, tone, and control. For example, a strength of 50 in the VK1 series ensures a robust yet flexible performance, comparable to a strength 3.5 cane reed. Vandoren’s detailed approach to reed strength helps saxophonists achieve optimal sound and feel for their individual needs.
