Plasticover: a benchmark designed for stability
The Plasticover range has become popular among musicians seeking a reliable reed that remains stable despite humidity, heat, or temperature fluctuations. Its coating protects the cane and helps maintain a consistent response from reed to reed, while highlighting a brighter tonal character.
For whom, and in which styles
These reeds are aimed at beginner to advanced musicians looking for easy response and good projection. They are particularly suitable for jazz, pop, and variety contexts, amplified concerts, and outdoor performances where stability is a real advantage.
Sound and design
The plastic coating promotes a quick response and a consistent playing feel, with a bright timbre and strong projection. The standard Rico cut (American cut) aims for a good balance between ease of attack, flexibility, and durability, while minimizing the impact of humid conditions on the cane.
Recommended compatible accessories
To preserve the curvature and lifespan, a ventilated reed case is recommended (to be chosen according to your instrument and the exact size of your reeds).
