The VK1 embodies the modern approach to synthetic reeds for tenor saxophones: the goal is to offer the consistency of industrial production without sacrificing the harmonic richness expected by musicians. Designed to reproduce the essential characteristics of cane while eliminating the variations inherent in natural material, it fits naturally into the professional reed range.
This reed is for saxophonists of all levels seeking consistency and reliability: touring professionals, studio musicians, teachers, and advanced students. Its stability makes it particularly suitable for situations where climatic conditions change or where speed of set-up is important.
The design of the VK1 emphasizes precise attack, clear articulation, and good projection. The composite material retains its geometry over time, allowing for repeatable settings and less frequent replacement. Low maintenance, cleaning with warm water or a suitable product, and easy storage between uses.
