 Reeds similar to Gonzalez GD
Author: adam_s

Hi,

I was until recently a longtime user of Gonzalez GD reeds, which I enjoyed for the depth and richness of their tone. Unfortunately, they have gone a little downhill in the past few years, and I'm looking for an alternative.

Any recommendations for something similar?

I would suggest that Vandoren V12 and Leuthner French Cut are similar reeds, but my Gonzalez GD experience is limited to only one box of strength 3.5 (2006 harvest).

I played the Gonzalez GD (#3) for a couple of years and switched to Pilgerstorfer Dolce (#4) and Exquisit (1.5,2). I also liked the Rico/D’addario Reserve (not Classic) #3.

I think all of these have similar qualities: lively response, nice sound and even performance across octaves and dynamics.

If you liked the GDs, these might be worth a try.

Good luck!
