The Reserve clarinet mouthpieces have proved to be very popular since their introduction. The dedication to recreating that vintage clarinet mouthpiece tone and feel results in a very playable and rich sounding mouthpiece. Ideal for upgrading and professional level playing.
Unlike other major brands the mouthpiece is precision milled from a solid rod of ebonite which results in a stable rich core sound. D Addario have invested heavily in 3 new CNC machines to make these mouthpieces to the most consistent tolerances available in modern manufacturing. Well worth serious consideration when upgrading your mouthpiece. Crafted from a unique proprietary hard rubber for tonal beauty and evenness.
The closer tip openings (X0, X5, X10) generally require a slightly harder reed set-up than the more open tips (X10, X10E, X15E, X25E). The combination of closer tip opening and harder reed can give a more centred, solid tone. Whereas, the slighlty more open tip and softer reed can offer a broader tonal range with a differing resistance feel.
