Vandoren SR2125 Alto Sax Traditional Reeds Strength 2.5; Box of 10

I’ve purchased the Vandoren SR213 Alto Sax Traditional Reeds (Strength 3, Box of 10) at least four times, and they consistently deliver excellent tone and response. Each reed is durable, well‑crafted, and provides a warm, balanced sound that works beautifully across styles. The consistency from box to box makes them a dependable choice, whether practicing or performing.

This reed has been very good for my bigginer musician . Fits the mouthpiece really good and has a great sound . I recommend it.

As a saxophone player this reed is one of my favorite reed and it gives a really good tune. I love how comfortable it is when playing, I am a person who practice a lot and this is a perfect reed because of the durability.

My son loves these reeds. Yes, they are expensive, but have the best sound of any reeds we have bought so far. I would recommend these reeds to anyone who wants to have a beautiful sound and achieve the best results with their saxophone. Highly recommended by his teacher and I hesitated due to the price, but glad we bought them. We will not be buying any others besides the Vandoren.

I've played classical sax, not jazz or pop, and taught it, for 45 years. I'm an oboist and English hornist, and an accomplished reed maker. This Vandoren reed in the purple and sold box went through a prolonged poor-quality period for a several decades in the 70's to 90's, but in the past decade, they've really upped their game to regain their position at the top of the market. This is not the Reed you buy for jazz band or small combo. This is the reed you buy for concert band, for UIL solo and ensemble contest, for use with a classic mouthpiece vs jazz/rock mouthpiece. They are profiled to produce a mellow, dark sound, and not the raspy, throaty, or screaming sounds used in pop venues. They are still made of the better quality cane that the cheaper reeds are not made of, thus the price difference, and the cane quality is EVERYTHING in tone quality and longevity! They are as consistent from reed to reed as handmachine- profiling for mass production will ever yield. They will not all be great in every box, but there will be more usable ones in this box, less warpage in the cane, longer-lasting ones, and better-sounding ones in this box than in the cheap reed boxes. Bite the bullet and buy these, and find a teacher who can show you how to use a reed knife to adjust the justfair ones in the box.

Vandoren is the brand my child asked me to buy for his saxophone and clarinet. The quality is excellent and likely one of the best available, though I do wish the price were a bit lower.

As expected. Qualify product, quick delivery.

Great price!
