Vandoren JAVA Red Alto Saxophone Reeds; Box of 10

Vandoren JAVA Red alto saxophone reeds combine the jazz-oriented JAVA design with a filed cut and thicker heart for a warmer, more stable tone than the JAVA Green. The Red delivers a bigger, darker sound with more body and edge, making it ideal for players who want jazz power and projection with a bit more depth and warmth in the mix.

The filed cut gives JAVA Reds faster response and extra flexibility compared to the unfiled Green, and the steeper slope from heart to rails contributes to their distinctive tonal character. These reeds sit in between the brightness of JAVA Green and the darkness of V16, making them a versatile choice for a wide range of jazz and contemporary styles.
