Vandoren V12 Bb Clarinet Reeds - 10 Count Box

Bb clarinet V•12 reeds are manufactured from cane tubes with the same diameter as cane used for alto saxophone reeds.

As a result, they have a thicker heel and are cut on a longer palette with a slightly thicker tip than the Traditional. The longer palette means that more of the reed is vibrating, resulting in a deeper, richer sound. The thicker tip gives body to the attack and also increases the longevity of the reed. The V•12 offer a warm, rich and powerful sound.

The introduction of the 3½+ strength for Bb clarinet allows a smaller and more specific gradation, resulting in reeds that are more consistent within the same strength. The V•12 has expanded to include the Eb and Bass clarinet reeds, which offer a warm, rich and powerful sound.
