Rico alto saxophone reeds in strength 2.0 are the classic starter reed for young and beginning players. The unfiled cut and thin blank produce immediate response with minimal effort, letting new players focus on learning the instrument rather than wrestling with their reed. The bright, projected tone works well in school band settings.

This box of 10 keeps you stocked for months of practice and performances. Reeds are a consumable part of playing saxophone, and having plenty on hand means you're never stuck playing on a worn-out reed that's holding you back. As your embouchure develops, you'll naturally be ready to move up to strength 2.5 or 3.0.
