D'Addario Rico RRP05TSX150 Plasticover 1.5 Strength Reeds for Tenor Sax (Pack of 5)

احببته بكل تفاصيله

Es lo que me esperaba, todo correcto

There are things that I LOVE about these Rico Plasticovers, and things that I find problematic. So, even though I gave it three stars, I will still use it at times.I play a non-standard instrument, a saxoflute, so your results will be different, but the setup elements are transferrable. On amazon.com, look up Key of G Tenor All Terrain Saxophone to see my instrument.I am using a Rico B5 alto mouthpiece, a Rovner MK III ligature, and a 1.5 strength tenor reed.I hate the reed wetting process, or the need to dry out the reed after using. The is a big plus point for the Plasticover! (2 points).I like ease of reed cleaning. Another positive point for the Plasticover.I like using a reed on a moment's notice. I like durability. I like knowing that my reed won't chip or splinter if I forget to put the cap on the mouthpiece when putting the sax away and taking it out again. That's three more points in favor of the Plasticover.I LOVE the mellow tone and excellent control of the Plasticover. It is not suitable for all moods, but it is really nice at times. We are now up to seven positive points for the Plasticovers.I am used to the ease of playing and tight seal of the Légère Studio cut. The Plasticover requires more breath, more lip pressure, making it harder to play. That is two points against the Plasticover.I get a breathy-sounding air leak with the Plasticover. That probably contributes to its needing more air support. A third point against the Plasticover.I like both the warm, mellow sound of the Plasticover, AND the edgy, saxy sound of the Légère. So that one is a tie.If Rico came up with a 1.0 strength Plasticover (which would really be a 1.5 strength), I would definitely give it a try.I do not know where the Plasticover's air leak is coming from, but I am getting a breathy sound. I would love some feedback on this area.

Bueno

Veio todas mofadas.

Not a pro sax player but for past 12 years have been playing several hours every week contemporary praise and worship in non-denominational churches. I always liked Rico Royals from the old high school band days. These plastic coated Rico reeds are great. You don't have to soak them before playing so they never get over-saturated. Just a quick lick to make the mouthpiece seal and they are ready to play. You can put the horn down for an hour or two and pick it up and begin playing immediately since they don't dry out either. Also, the plastic surface is much smoother on the lip so you don't get the big lip callous like you do with uncoated reeds. Great sound too, at least I think so.
