Rico Alto Saxophone Reeds - 3.0 (10-Pack)

Rico alto saxophone reeds in strength 3.0 step up in resistance and body, delivering a fuller, more resonant tone for players who've moved past the beginner stage. The unfiled cut maintains the easy-playing character Rico is known for, while the firmer reed gives you more control over dynamics and tone color.

This strength works well for intermediate students in concert band, jazz band, and private study. The added resistance rewards good air support with richer sound and better projection. If you've been comfortable on 2.5 for a while and your teacher suggests moving up, the 3.0 is the natural next step in your development as a player.
