The Vk reeds for alto saxophone are made of a composite material specially developed by Vandoren. It is the result of 7 years of research.
This composite fiber material does not imitate the structure of cane.
It reproduces its essential physical characteristics to obtain the same acoustic behavior.
The VK reed strenghts correspond to a 1/6 of a cane reed strength (see chart above)
Two reeds of the same strength are strictly identical : unparalleled consistency resulting in reliable stregth, sound, articulation, projection and high note stability.
