This reed is designed to produce a quality of extremely pure sound due to a very thin reed tip (the area of reed with maximum vibration), balanced by a solid vertebral column (more cane in the area which climbs gradually to the heel).
Vandoren Traditional Reeds feature the thinnest tip with the thickest heart, resulting in crisp articulation with a full, dark sound.
