An "accessible" reference in the Rico range
The Rico "Orange Box" reeds have established themselves as a reliable and affordable choice, particularly appreciated in education and by many jazz-oriented musicians. The brand emphasizes manufacturing consistency to achieve more uniform reeds from one to another.
For which musician and styles?
These reeds are very suitable for students and musicians seeking a quick response, especially in jazz and contemporary music. The 2.0 strength promotes comfortable handling without requiring too much air.
Sound and design
The American cut (thinner vamp) facilitates vibration: the reed starts faster and requires less effort. The heart (thicker central area that stabilizes vibration) being thinner than usual here, provides a softer playing feel and immediate response.
