Discontinued 1/4 strengths for Classic and Studio Cut
You are here:
At the end of 2019, Légère is discontinuing the production of 1/4 strength increments in Classic and Studio Cut reeds for both clarinet and saxophone.
This change will make room for new clarinet and saxophone reeds that are currently in development. As prototype testing progresses, it is becoming clear that nearly all players prefer the new reeds to the Classics and the Studio Cut models.
1/4 strengths remain available in all Signature reeds (excluding the sopranino) and German Cut Classics.
Strengths being discontinued:
Classic for Saxophone & Clarinet 1.75, 2.25, 2.75, 3.25, 3.75, 4.25, 4.75
Studio Cut for Saxophone 1.75, 2.25, 2.75, 3.25
