Buy any 5 boxes of reeds - Save 10%

Designed in 1983 for JAzz & VAriety. Thicker, yet more flexible than the
Traditional reed. This produces greater vibration & elasticity.

"Bright & with quick, snappy response plus great subtones, these are
clearly aimed at players with a bright, contemporary sound. Javas now
come in 2 varieties; the original 'Green Box'& a new 'Red Box' version.
Green Javas are a slightly thinner, more sensitive reed- good for
acoustic gigs and studio work- whereas the Reds have a bigger tone and
more power making them ideal for projection in louder situations- big
bands etc (though see V16s, bellow for some useful information for
anyone playing with an amplified outfits). Also note that the Red Box
version is French Filed, hence potentially has the same issues with
narrow beak/high baffle mouthpieces as Rico Jazz Selects" Jules@sax.co.uk
