Rico Royal: a more refined alternative to the "Orange Box"
Rico Royal reeds were designed to offer a more developed playing experience than the Rico "Orange Box," with more strength options and better consistency from reed to reed. Their profile combines the traditional Rico cut with elements inspired by the French cut to achieve a cleaner attack and a more defined sound, especially in soft dynamics.
For which musician and styles?
Intended for advanced musicians, Rico Royal reeds are particularly suited to contexts where a clear and well-centered sound is desired. They adapt well to both jazz and classical uses, providing a stable response for articulation, fast passages, and intonation control. This reference is also available for different types of clarinets and saxophones (depending on the model chosen).
Sound and design
The Rico Royal emphasizes easy response and clean projection, with a consistent playing feel in both the low and high registers. Its French cut contributes to precision and timbre definition, while the "traditional Rico" base with a more robust vamp (the vibrating area of the reed) promotes stability and endurance, especially with a strength 5.0.
