// Vandoren The Synthetic Reed VK1 for Alto Saxophone // The VK synthetic reed is made from a new composite fiber, the result of seven years of research by Vandoren. This new compo site fiber does more than simply mimic the structure of cane; it replicates the essential physical properties of cane to achieve the same acoustic properties as a cane reed. VK reeds are manufactured using completely new materials and methods that are internationally patented. VK reeds and their materials are produced in Bormes-les-Mimosas, France, and are 100% recyclable. There are two types of VK reeds for alto saxophones: the traditional type "VK1 (7 hardness levels)" and the jazz type "VK7 (6 hardness levels)." For hardness, please refer to the correspondence table in the fourth image. 【performance】 ■ Stability: This material is resistant to rot, does not warp when dry, and is not affected by moisture (such as saliva). ■Durability: VK reeds stay in the same condition as when you bought them for a longer period of time than cane reeds, resulting in better and more consistent performance. *Since the reeds need to be stored flat, we recommend using a reed case that can be stored on a flat surface. Easy to Use: VK reeds are ready to use right out of the package. No pre-wetting or pre-settling is required. They are washable with water, alcohol, or mild food-grade detergent. ■Consistency: Consistently reliable firmness, sound, articulation, projection and stability in the high range.■ Capacity: 1 piece ■Hardness: 40 Model number: SVK12140 *Vandorren Traditional (blue box) 3 (softer)・VK1 hardness variations: 30 / 35 / 40 / 45 / 50 / 55 / 60 Show more
