"I use D'Addario reeds because I like their consistency, both of the cane and the cut. I like knowing what I'm going to get, especially since I'm playing at 4500 ft above sea level!"
"An Eb reed needs to first and foremost be able to hold the pitch in the altissimo register. There is nothing worse than screeching and scooping way up high. The reed needs to be solid and D'Addario Reserve Eb Reeds deliver. They also have a sweet sound and articulate cleanly and easily. A win all around!"
