I've had some major technical errors in trying to find the right strength size to suit me but I eventually ended up with 2 3/4 and wow, is really is amazing. The altissimo range belts out like a screaming guitar or soprano sound. I use an Otto Link mouthpiece on a saxophone with the Legere reed I am a saxophone GOD.

I originally had doubts about any manufactured reed until I tried this one. We all know the typical trials and errors we go through to get the perfect reed every time we buy a box. For some of us, it may even be exciting and fun to see how many good ones we get in a box even after we still have to make adjustments to them. These reeds are truly remarkable in that they work immediately with no need to wet them or to trim them. They last a long time and keep their excellent tone much longer than you would ever expect. It is worth paying the higher price to get at least one and see for yourself. I play tenor sax with an Otto link metal mouthpiece, and have been very pleased (and surprised) about the quality of this reed. It might take a small adjustment at first compared to your cane reeds, but then again most cane reeds need adjustments for each one you use and they never continue to work well for long (especially, it seems, when you need it the most). Don't buy this reed if you enjoy the challenge of buying a whole box of reeds that hopefully will produce one or two that work for a few sessions
