Review: Beautiful clear tone, perfect for classical music - Reeds are very much a personnal choice and need to match the player and mouthpiece. I play with a vandoren M13 profile 88 mouthpiece, which likes a hard reed. Vadoren 56s have a reputation for having a short life but, I have never had that problem and, all in all the life of these reed at strength of 3.5, I find very good. A softer reed may show this issue. I am not a professional player, but this is by far my favourite reed. I has a clear and pure tone that is maybe a little quieter than some other reeds but, suits the classical and traditional genres really well. I am no jazz or kletzmer player but, I would imagine you would want something with a little more oomph in it for that. The consistency of quality is pretty good although I have noted a dud or two but, every so often a box throws up the reed equivalent of stradivarious. The negative is that they a pricy so they may not be the sort of reed you would want to give to a inexperienced young player. But, if there is an exam coming up it may be a worth while investment if you want to play - hunt the stradivarious and find teh very best reed in the box. Could make a big difference to tone and exam outcome
Review: Exceptional clarity, intonation and immediate response - Exceptional reeds so much more flexibility in these than the standard blue ones. I moved away from vandoren when I bought my Buffet R13 many years ago. After returning to the world of woodwind after 15 years a lot has changed. These are now my go to reed for Bb clarinet. I just hope they release these for all the clarinet family.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Do these reeds still come in the special rigid set-up box? Or do they now come in a standard Vandoren box?**
A: Still in the rigid box pictured

**Q: I play a 4 stength on the v12's, what strength should I play on these?**
A: Try the 4s.  True, they are better quality reeds, but you can probably use a 4.

**Q: would these reeds work on alto  Bb clarinet**
A: I'm not sure I understand your question because the alto clarinet is pitched in Eb, not Bb. However, I can tell you that the Eb alto clarinet needs a larger reed than the standard Bb clarinet, so the answer to your question is probably "no". As far as I can tell, Amazon doesn't sell Rue Lepics for alto clarinet (and I'm not sure that Vandoren even makes them). Your best bet for alto clarinet reeds is probably to go with the standard blue box reeds: http://www.amazon.com/Vandoren-Alto-Clarinet-Reeds-3-5/dp/B0002D0ALO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1384734362&sr=8-1.

**Q: Is the sound a little darker and warmer than that he v12 reeds?**
A: For me it was quite similar to the V12.  I would describe the V12 as warmer.  For me the upper register was easier to play / less Tinny than the V12 but they were both very similar for me.
