Re: D'Addarrio Reserve Classic reeds

Well I haven't played the Ricos but the D'addarios are designed slightly differently, and from all indications I have heard they play better than the old Ricos. I currently use them with my B45 mouthpiece and I find they give me a big rich resonant sound. At first I didn't like them because i thought they where kind of... unfinished, but after working on them and playing them for awhile they sound great. The box I got had at least 9/10 playable reeds and one of those was simply outstanding. I find these reeds help me achieve the sound I want to make, without having to fight the reed.
