Plasticover: a benchmark for "ready-to-play" reeds
Plasticover reeds are based on a standard Rico cut and are distinguished by their plastic coating. This design aims for a stable response when the environment changes (temperature, humidity), while maintaining a direct and effective sound character, often sought after on stage.
For which musicians and contexts?
In strength 2.0, these reeds are particularly suitable for musicians seeking easy response and a flexible feel, whether for amplified playing, section stands, or long sets. They are recommended for styles where a sound that "cuts through" easily is desired: jazz, pop, variety, and outdoor performances.
Sound and design
The plastic coating contributes to a feeling of stability and a longer lifespan compared to traditional reeds, while limiting the impact of humidity changes. The American cut (profile designed for quick response) promotes a clear attack, good presence, and sharp projection, with a naturally bright timbre.
