Alexander DC Soprano Sax Reeds (Box of 5) 2.5

The new Superial "DC" (or "Double Cut") reed has a slightly harder tip and more wood in the heart and sides than Superial and therefore produces a more solid tonal core, enhanced projection and power, and a little darker harmonic timbre than Superial, but still one with the kind of "edge" and authority needed in soloing or lead work. The "DC" tonal concept is reminiscent of the saxophonists from the 1950's to the "Blue Note", "Miles" and "Trane", and "Wayne" eras.This is a reed of increased power that would be particularly suitable for big band, stage band or marching reed players, as well. Since its introduction in 1995, "DC" seems to be especially favored by professionals who need a lot of power and want to push the reed to the limits of its dynamic capabilities, while still retaining an even balance from top to bottom. 5 reeds per box.
