Trusted by students, revered by educators and relied on by professional musicians, it is all but guaranteed that you will find a Rico reed on a tenor sax from the high school band classroom to the stage of the most prestigious symphony in the world. Featuring a thinner vamp cut designed for ease of play, a traditional blank for a clear sound and unfiled for powerful tone, D’Addario Woodwinds (formerly Rico) tenor sax reeds are ideal for a wide array of playing situations. D’Addario’s digital reed-making technology has resulted in unprecedented quality and consistency in today’s Rico reed. From the cane fields in France to its reed-manufacturing facility in the USA, D’Addario has invested millions to create the world’s most consistent reed. Rico reeds have been the standard among teachers and students for generations. Priced affordably with students, parents and educators in mind, Rico reeds create a perfect seal on the instrument mouthpiece and are designed to reward the student with an immediate sound. Reeds are available in a variety of strengths, convenient 3-pack, 10-pack, 25-pack dispensers and 50-count boxes for a full range of clarinets and saxophones. For nearly a century, the name Rico has been synonymous with quality reeds. Now part of the D’Addario family of musical instruments and accessories, D’Addario Woodwinds has revamped the reed-making process to create the reed of choice among all levels of clarinetists and saxophonists, played in the world’s most respected symphonies, conservatories, and jazz clubs.
