Légère French Cut reeds soprano sax SSF

French Cut

A new, refined, symphonic reed that delivers richness and stability in tone with the perfect amount of resistance.

The French Cut's tonal profile is dark, elegant, and centered, offering a deep range of tonal possibilities. Utilizing the same advanced material technology as the Signature, European, and American Cut reeds, the French Cut now gives players new choices to optimize their tone, resistance, and sound.

At the heart of the French Cut is a completely redesigned profile, carefully crafted to elevate the classical and orchestral playing experience.

Unlike European and American Cut reeds, which concentrate material in the center of the reed to emphasize a bright, broad harmonic spectrum, the French Cut features a more even distribution of material across the reed head to suppress high overtones while simultaneously increasing body and depth. The French Cut has a thinner tip and provides the perfect balance: the responsiveness musicians demand, combined with just the right amount of resistance.

The result? A reed that authentically references tradition, bringing out a nuanced depth and warmth, tailor-made for the biggest stages and the most demanding classical musicians.
