Recent production of Rico Evolution reeds

Author: OmarHo

Hi all,
I've kept half of box of the Rico Grand Concert Evolution Reeds (3 1/2) from about a year ago, and I guess it wasn't manufactured recently because they're in the old plastic reed cases without the the 3 upside down "u"s on the front, like the new cases. I do remember comparing these reeds with a more recent box, carried in the new cases, and I vaguely remember them almost looking like reserve reeds with a slightly lower cut to the vamp.

I hope that made sense...Can anyone confirm whether they have slightly changed the cut?
Thanks.

Perhaps I should add some more detail:

I have the reeds where on the back of the box it advertises the "Revolution Reed Holder", and the stamp on the back is brown. However, what I'm asking is, recently have these reeds changed?

Wouldn't surprise me. They changed significantly between the trial duopacks (stamped in blue ink) and the first real box I bought (with that brown branded effect on the back).
