| Rico Alto Saxophone Reeds, Box Of 10
Click on the image above to see a larger version.
The standard Rico reed is the type of reed that we recommend for most beginning students. The reeds are good quality, without being too pricey.
Reeds are typically available in strengths of 1 through 5 (some brands label their reeds as Soft, Medium Soft, ... through Hard). In general, the lower the number, the easier it is to play most notes. The down side, is that the lower number reeds just don't sound as nice, and make it harder to hit high notes.
As a general rule, we recommend reeds with a strength of 2 (Soft) for people just getting started, and strength 2 1/2 (Medium Soft) for people who have played for a year (less time if they take lessons). The harder reeds should only be used after using the next softer size of reed for six months to a year, or at the recommendation of a private instructor or band director. "Rico Alto Saxophone Reeds - Strength 1 1/2" has a sales rank of 706.
