"Tobin....I don't understand the reasoning behind going from a Rico 2.5 to a vd 2.5. Would you please explan? (I don't play Ricos)"

Hello Bob,

Russjm has it right. Vandoren reeds are stiffer than the first tier Ricos. A VD 2.5 is much closer to a Rico 3 (and some of them might as well be!). So the student makes a step up not only in reed strength but in quality as well.

Russjm: I'm glad you've found what works for you! Now you can put all your attention into having some fun,

James
