The Vandoren VK7 is the “Jazz” version of the VK synthetic reed range developed by Vandoren. The result of several years of research, it is distinguished by a specific cut and flexibility that promote power, freedom of play, and spontaneity of expression. While retaining the reliability of a synthetic reed, it offers acoustic behavior close to that of a high-quality cane reed.
The VK7 is particularly suited to tenor saxophonists playing jazz, funk, pop, and improvised music. Its direct response and generous dynamics appeal to musicians seeking an incisive, expressive, and stable sound. Classical players who want a little more projection or bite may also appreciate it.
Thanks to its exclusive composite design, the VK7 offers increased flexibility and a brilliant tone without excess. It guarantees stability in humid conditions, resistance to deformation, and durability far superior to traditional reeds. Lightweight, ready to play immediately, and easy to maintain, it ensures consistent performance from one rehearsal to the next.
