Consistent, great sounding, and long lasting
Yamaha synthetic reeds are consistent from reed to reed, so finding a “good one” is never an issue. This makes it easy for beginners to produce a good tone. They’re also consistent over time, so they support proper embouchure development. Instead of having to adjust their nascent embouchure to a constantly changing cane reed, developing players will benefit from using Yamaha synthetic reeds, which sound natural and euphonic every time they play. And as for longevity, Yamaha has tested their synthetic reeds for over 320 hours of playing time, so they’ll also save you cash in the long run.
Ready to play right away
Unlike natural cane reeds that need moistening before you begin playing, Yamaha synthetic reeds are ready to play straight out of the package — no wetting required. This makes them ideal for all types of situations where keeping your reed wet is a challenge, such as marching band, frigid weather, or for doublers playing multiple instruments. With Yamaha synthetic reeds, you can forget about tedious and time-consuming reed conditioning many players go through as they trim, file, and sculpt in the quest for the “perfect” cane reed (as ephemeral as that may be). Every Yamaha synthetic reed is perfect right out of the package, so you can start playing immediately.
Non-toxic and easy to clean
Yamaha synthetic reeds are fully compliant with American, Japanese, and European non-toxicity safety standards. They can be cleaned with regular soap and water or disinfected with mouthpiece cleaner or isopropyl alcohol. What’s more, the packaging they come in is water resistant and can’t be damaged by a wet reed, so you can use it as a convenient reed case.
Identify your strength
As with cane reeds, Yamaha synthetic reeds are available in different strengths that employ the same familiar numbering system. Whether you’re a novice or an experienced player using a cherished mouthpiece, it’s easy to find the perfect Yamaha synthetic reed for any mouthpiece, skill level, and playing style. Whichever you choose, you’ll enjoy beautifully balanced playability throughout your instrument’s range.
