Review: Solid, sturdy, great for practice - Great plastic covered reeds The sound that they produce is slightly inferior compared to a normal cane reed, they sound more harsh and brassy, so obviously you will not be using them in performances. However, the upside to this is that they are very sturdy and much more durable compared to the soft normal bamboo ones, can be used in long sessions and if you want to practice in long sessions on your sax (and you do, since all good players do this) this is a must have. I have been using these for a while with one reed working well multiple months! They are also a bit easier to get a sound out of compared to traditional reed, so if you are just starting or practicing: These are really great
Review: Used for 20 years and counting. - Arrived promptly. I've used these reeds for over 20 years now. Always consistent and never a bad one. The plastic coating incredibly thin and keeps your reeds for longer. I love the sound too. I play with a DG king Curtis silver mouthpiece and get a great crisp Jazz soul sound like King Curtis, junior walker etc.
