The most widely played reeds in the world with a superiority proven over the
years, these reeds suit all styles of music.
Traditional

Traditionals are known for their excellent response in all registers, allowing a
pianissimo attack in even the highest notes.
They are also extremely flexible, allowing the legato or staccato execution of
large intervals while maintaining a richness of tone that gives body and clarity to
the sound, which is a hallmark of Vandoren reeds.

Reed authentication
In order to guarantee the excellence of the Vandoren brand and to enable
musicians to have confidence that they are playing a genuine Vandoren product,
we have devised a system of authentication.
Musicians and retailers can confirm the authenticity of their Vandoren reeds and
reed boxes at any time. Each reed and reed box contains an identification code
that can easily be verified at:

Clarinet
Bb clarinet V12 reeds are manufactured from cane tubes with
the same diameter as cane used for alto saxophone reeds. As a
result, they have a thicker heel and are cut on a longer palette with a
slightly thicker tip than the Traditional. The longer palette means that
more of the reed is vibrating, resulting in a deeper, richer sound.
The thicker tip gives body to the attack and also increases the
longevity of the reed.
The introduction of the 3 + strength allows a smaller and more
specific gradation, resulting in reeds that are more consistent within
the same strength.
The V12 has expanded to include the Eb and Bass clarinet reeds,
which offer a warm, rich and powerful sound.

The V21 reed combines the conical shape of a 56 rue lepic reed
with a V12 profile.
This unique combination makes all registers of the clarinet more
accessible with warmth and a depth of sound. It will allow you to
play with amazing presence and immediate response.
V21 is the perfect reed for performances that require the ability to
handle large interval leaps efficiently with an even and rich tone.

The Black Master reeds have a wider and thicker cut than the White
Master reeds.
They are available in two different models:
The Black Master reed
Its cut is designed for Austrian mouthpieces. Thanks to its response and
tone characteristics, this cut can also suit the Boehm system mouthpieces.
The Black Master Traditional reed
This cut, in the tradition of the Viennese school, is designed for very closed
Austrian mouthpieces, with a long facing.

Boehm and German System Bb Clarinet Mouthpieces
2 versatile mouthpieces which can be played both on German and Boehm System clarinets: M30D & B40D.
The length and diameter of the shank, the bore, the appearance of the tip rail and the external shape are the components of this
new concept, which offers a perfect balance between a very warm sound and great intonation.
56 Rue Lepic reeds are more particularly recommended for these mouthpieces.

reeds
Traditional
A topographical diagram of each cut, with the lines connecting areas of equal thickness. The more pointed the arch,
the thicker the spine and heart, and conversely, the thinner the side bevels.
This reed is designed to produce a quality of extremely pure sound due to a very thin reed tip (the area
of reed with maximum vibration), balanced by a solid vertebral column (more cane in the area which
climbs gradually to the heel).
TM
Traditional
TM
Traditionals feature the thinnest tip with the thickest heart, resulting in
crisp articulation with a full, dark sound.
Traditional
TM
Produced from cane selected for its specific proportions, the V12
reeds have a thicker heel and are cut on a longer palette with a slightly
thicker tip than the Traditional. The longer palette means that more of
the reed is vibrating, resulting in a deeper, richer sound. The thicker tip
gives body to the attack and also increases the longevity of the reed.

FILED - REDCUT
The driving force behind the JAVA Filed - Red Cut design was to offer more sonic possibilities to
musicians while keeping the qualities of the original Java.
FILED - REDCUT
A relative of the JAVA reed family, the JAVA Filed - Red Cut is the first
file cut Vandoren reed for jazz and popular music. It also benefits from a
completely new design.
JAVA reeds are more flexible than Traditionals and V16s and vibrate
on a long palette, creating a bright sound with immediate response.
ZZ reeds combine the medium-thick heart, spine, and rounded tip of the
V16 with the flexible palette design of the JAVA, giving the player a rich,
colorful sound with quick response.
More flexible than its elder version, with a little more tonal body, the JAVA Filed - Red Cut offers a
full, rich, centered sound and excellent projection with an extremely precise attack.

V16 reeds have a medium-thick heart (more than JAVA but less than
Traditionals), with a profile designed for producing a strong attack with
a deep, rich sound.
FILED - REDCUT
Developed in 1983 for jazz and popular music. A thicker tip and a more flexible palette* than the
Traditional reed allow vibration over a larger surface area with maximum elasticity.
FILED
REED
This type of vertebral column gives the musician much greater playing flexibility, as the resultant elasticity
zone is very large.
* Palette: zone where the waves are propagated with the greatest range. From the tip, the waves are
absorbed further in the JAVA reed.
