Each reed is individually sealed to maintain freshness, making this box of 10 the go-to choice for professional and passionate saxophonists seeking a rich, responsive sound trusted by generations. ## Description This reed is designed to produce a quality of extremely pure sound due to a very thin reed tip (the area of reed with maximum vibration), being balanced by a solid vertebral column (more cane in the area which climbs gradually to the heel). These reeds are recognizable by a straight line to delineate the limit of the area of bark. The favorite reed of classic saxophonists worldwide since Marcel Mule, it has always been (and is still) used with equal success by many players. Review: TLDR: they work great. Read ahead only if you want a silly story lol - I had always stubbornly remained a Rico Royal loyalist throughout all my years in band. All the claims of “Vandorens are the best reeds” fell on deaf ears to me. Since I was younger, any time I had to use a Vandoren reed, I hated it. I was always given Vandoren 3-3.5 reeds by others and they were way too hard for me to get a good sound on. In band, it was often a p*ssing contest to see how high of a reed you could play on. I never dared to play anything softer than a 3, as it would make me the laughing stock of the section. Well. Fast forward to me being an adult out of school, playing for my own leisure. I learned that a Rico Royal 3 is probably more comparable to a Vandoren 2.5 than a Vandoren 3 reed, anyway. So all this time, my pride of using at least a 3 reed meant nothing. “Hmm,” I thought. “I wonder if I would like Vandorens if I tried them in a 2.5 strength then.” No one was around to mock me. And even if they were, I wouldn’t have cared at this age. Curiosity got the best of me. I deleted the Rico Royals from my desertcart cart and added these. Lo and behold, much to my stubborn displeasure, I was right. These worked like a charm. Moral of the story, don’t limit yourself to one reed brand or one reed strength. Try stuff out, you might be surprised! I will probably be buying these again next time, and grumbling to myself about betraying my beloved Rico Royals as I do it, lol. Review: band saxophone parts. - They are made with durable Material and make saxophone sound great. We order one box to replace once a semester for my sons band.

I've heard they are but these were Vandoren from about 10-15 years ago.** A: Any new reed is going to be stiff as is expected. The reeds do "loosen" as they are used to some extent. I recommend them to intermediate players. For a beginner then the strength should probably be a 2. Both strengths work well and help deliver a quality tone. **Q: what size should I buy?? any advice im 18, for band** A: Ask your Band Teacher. They usually want every alto sax player using the same mouthpiece and same reed brand and strength . That being said, the 2.5 is an excellent reed. I played on a 2.0 strength for 1st year. **Q: How much can shave the reed and still make a nice tone** A: Easy does it on shaving those reeds! Unless you have played for years don't monkey with shaving the reed. That is done carefully on certain spots on the reed. And try practice first to get the nice tone and make sure you are using the right number reed for yourself. **Q: hello please if I order two or three boxes must I pay the 2.99 ship for each one or only one time? thank you and happy new year** A: Hi There,If you order all the boxes at once, on one order, you would only have to pay shipping one time, for one order.Happy New Year's,TomThe Music Store ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ TLDR: they work great.

We order one box to replace once a semester for my sons band. They are easy to install on instrument. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Expensive, but worth it. *by W***N on January 9, 2026* My son loves these reeds. Yes, they are expensive, but have the best sound of any reeds we have bought so far. I would recommend these reeds to anyone who wants to have a beautiful sound and achieve the best results with their saxophone. Highly recommended by his teacher and I hesitated due to the price, but glad we bought them. We will not be buying any others besides the Vandoren. ## Frequently Bought Together - Vandoren SR2125 Alto Sax Traditional Reeds Strength 2.5; Box of 10 - Vandoren CR1025 Bb Clarinet Traditional Reeds Strength 2.5; Box of 10 - Vandoren SR2225 Tenor Sax Traditional Reeds Strength 2.5; Box of 5 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/859164-vandoren-sr2125-alto-sax-traditional-reeds-strength-2-5-box](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/859164-vandoren-sr2125-alto-sax-traditional-reeds-strength-2-5-box) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-08-24*
