Re: Signature v. European Legere ....

First, YES.....the Legere Signature Soprano Sax reeds are great on clarinet.. I'll repost Ricardo Morales' video when I get home.

For MY money, the Bb Signature reeds are thin sounding AND too flaccid to work properly.

My theory of the success of the European cut is that it is a combination of the type of plastic (varies from one model to another amongst Legeres) and the over all architecture (usual reed dimension issues such as vamp, etc) as well as the overall dimensions. This would account for some of the differences between the European cut and the Signature Soprano Saxophone reeds which are a significantly shorter reed.
