Rico Plasticover Soprano Saxophone Reeds Box of 5

The Rico Plasticover Soprano Saxophone Reeds (Box of 5) by D’Addario are designed for players who need reliability, durability, and immediate playability in any environment. Featuring a natural cane core with a thin plastic coating, these reeds combine the warmth of cane with the stability of synthetic materials.

The specialised coating makes the reeds highly resistant to moisture, humidity, and temperature changes, ensuring consistent performance whether you’re playing indoors, outdoors, or switching quickly between instruments. They are known for their instant response, meaning they play straight away without soaking or breaking in.

Plasticover reeds produce a bright, clear, and projecting tone, making them especially popular in jazz, pop, rock, and marching settings. Their filed (French cut) design also contributes to a quick response and clean articulation.
