Description

A highly versatile jazz reed, suitable for a wide range of modern styles.

A relative of the Java reed family, the Java "Red Cut" is the first file cut Vandoren jazz reed. This is when the reed goes through an additional cutting process to remove material from the reeds shoulders. Removing this material allows the reed to vibrate a bit more freely and gives it a quicker response.

The Java Red offers a full, rich, and centered sound, with a precise attack and excellent projection. This makes them the ideal reed for players performing in louder ensembles who need to cut through. Or as good all round reeds for players who do a bit of everything!

STAFF REVIEW

"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" - Julian Lawrence (jules@sax.co.uk)
