Rico Alto Saxophone Reeds - Jazz Select Filed - Strength 3 Medium
Item number 2100088DP, $39.42

The Rico Jazz Select reeds are Rico's premium saxophone reeds. They are designed to give extra durability and consistency, an give the extra projection demanded by jazz music. All boxed reeds are at least 10% off list price and are not returnable.
 
Reeds are typically available in strengths of 1 through 5 (some brands label their reeds as Soft, Medium Soft, ... through Hard). In general, the lower the number, the easier it is to play most notes. The down side, is that the lower number reeds just don't sound as nice, and make it harder to hit high notes.
 
As a general rule, we recommend reeds with a strength of 2 (Soft) for people just getting started, and strength 2 1/2 (Medium Soft) for people who have played for a year (less time if they take lessons). The harder reeds should only be used after using the next softer size of reed for six months to a year, or at the recommendation of a private instructor or band director.
