Re: ALTA Silverstein reeds

The ALTA Silverstein reeds are officially on the market. I for one, have optimistic thoughts for these reeds. I have bought 1 box of size 3 reeds, and unfortunately they were too soft. I play on a d'Addario reserve classic 3+ and a Legere European Signature 4 1/4 and 4 1/2 if that helps anyone. I ordered another box of 3.5 that should be arriving in the mail in a couple of days. So I will hopefully be able to comment on the reeds in a couple days. But what I experienced from the 3s even being too soft was enough to convince me to try the 3.5s.

P.S. If you are going to lay down the cash for a box of these and you are not one hundred percent sure about the strength buy the sample pack. You get a couple reeds of strengths from 3-4 and from what I have noticed is these reeds are pretty consistent. So you should get a reliable take from the strengths you end up liking.
