Gonzalez Bb Clarinet FOF Reed (Box: 10 Reeds)

DR TOOT presents the Gonzalez Bb Clarinet RC (Regular Cut) Reed.

For Our Friends (FOF) is for those clarinetists that need a reed with a darker sound.  They are made following an “American” cut.  These reeds have thicker wood in the heart – therefore they require longer times in order to become stable.

This cane is made of premium quality on a segment of 3.6 mm. rectified to 3.18 mm. Leaving the scraping in a more morbid area of the reed, this results in a darker sound.  ​The material is stored to age for at least 4 years before its manufacture.  Because of its deeply carved shoulders, the reed is completely released in the bass sounds, where vibrates like no other.  While a heart with higher density allows to attack the high notes with ease and refinement.

These reeds are suitable for intermediate, advanced and professional players.
