Vandoren V12!

My tone improved 100% with these reeds. I find that because they are cut
thicker, they are more stable and easier to control. Word of advice,
though...by them by the box. Although the box may say strength 4 on it,
they are actually anywhere from a 3.7 to a 4.3. All their boxes are
filled this way so that you can adjust for when you travel, or sudden
changes in humidity, etc.

Although I haven't yet tried them, I have also been told that the new Rico
Grand Concert thick cuts are nice, too. Very comparable to the V12s.
