The HR* (pronounced HR star) produces a beautiful warm sound with free blowing ease. This Hard Rubber Saxophone Mouthpiece features a round, medium size chamber. The HR* is suited for Traditional Jazz, Big Band, Straight-Ahead and Bebop, but also has enough power for more modern styles. This is a favorite of band directors for its ability to blend in with a section.

Featuring a filed cut for additional tonal clarity, Royal by D'Addario Soprano Saxophone reeds are ideal for both beginning and advancing players. These reeds have a traditional blank and profile to give you an ease of response when playing.

The System-76 curved soprano is unlike any of its conventional, straight bodied cousins… the warm sound and increased projection (due to the bell and bell key position) of this horn combine for a completely different and refreshing auditory experience. The feel quality is also much more nimble and balanced for playing.

Sound: more brilliant, more percussive, particularly well adapted to all the new styles of music. Launched in 1993 to answer the demand of some American jazz musicians (a JAVA with even more wood). The V16 has a thicker tip than the traditional Vandoren reeds and a longer palette. Sound: more brilliant, more percussive, particularly well adapted to all the new styles of music.
