harry hartmann reeds

Author: christoph440

I recently tried a Legere reed. I like the stability, longevity, and projection; but it's a little too soft so I have decided to buy a harder "reed". I'm trying to decide if I should just buy the next hardest Legere or try a Harry Hartmann. Has anyone tried them? Are they worth the price difference? Thanks.

I tried one on tenor sax -- it was awful. But that was just one reed.

If you bought it reciently and haven't used any sandpaper or reed knife on it then you can exchange it for a different strength.

I'm like David S. I tried one on tenor sax, too. Didn't like it.
