Description

These Boston Sax Shop alto reeds are the new kids on the block. Made by Rigotti in France and already gaining a reputation as some of the most consistent reeds available, these are a must try.

From Jack Finucane, the owner of the Boston Sax Shop:

Designing the Boston Sax Shop reed line has been a dream of mine, stemmed from the frustration that many of us as players have searching for that ‘perfect’ reed. For years I personally struggled to find a well balanced reed that would promote a warm, homogeneous tone while still allowing me to project. Most ‘jazz’ cut reeds seemed to play too ‘bright’ and ‘buzzy’ but offered the projection I needed while ‘classical’ reeds had the depth and evenness I was searching for but simply could not cut across a band. So with the help of the finest French cane manufacturer in the world, I designed a ‘hybrid’ jazz reed that had qualities of both cuts, creating a reed that did exactly what I asked; providing a warm and dark tone while still being able to be pushed.

As saxophone players, we know it’s all about the little things. The details that go unnoticed by almost everyone else. Maybe it’s that extra touch of style, or a thoughtful upgrade in the quality of a single part that’s only tangible to you, but that’s what separates a good product from a great one. At Boston Sax Shop we care about those details and strive to solve problems with each design. We rely on the feedback of the world’s top performing artists and are proud to have many of them as brand ambassadors. For us, it’s about the joy of creating the things we’ve always wanted to see available on the market and holding quality as our highest ideal.
