Good beginner reeds Jan 05, 2012
By E. Sikorski I have always found Ricos to be acceptable beginner reeds for students in their first year or two playing. Size 3 reeds are appropriate for students who have begun to cross the break. Definitely check with your teacher to make sure you are ready for a harder reed. The reeds are fairly consistent, and the lower price means that breaking a reed is not too much of an expense for whomever is footing the bill for reeds (teacher, student, school, parent...). The provided plastic cases do a good job protecting the reed, as long as they are not pushed in too far. I usually move students to Rico Royal or Vandoran after their first full year or two. Amazon does have excellent prices on reeds - definitely recommend buying here - especially with Prime shipping!
