 "Opera" Clarinet Reeds
Author: Aaron Diestel

I have only heard about these reeds but have never played them. I have had them on back order from WW and Bwind since NOVEMEBR of last year. I finally said FORGET THIS, in other words though.
So I finally went to Muncy Winds, anyway, they had plenty of boxes in stock so I orders a box. I was wondering, how do the Opera strengths compare to V12s? I play 4 strength V12's right now, without doing any work to fix them. I'm just wondering is an Opera 4 reed similar in strength to a 4 V12 reed?
Also how about consistency of the Opera reeds? Similar or not to the Vandoren?
That's all for now.
Aaron

I have been playing Opera No 3 for a few months. I would say they are slightly less strong than equivalent standard VDs. So far I've found them very consistent.
