collapse expand iconDescription

The Rico Royal Bb Clarinet Reeds are high-performance reeds designed for clarinetists at every level. Featuring a traditional French cut and conveniently packaged in a box of 10, these long-lasting reeds produce a balanced, resonant tone that makes playing a joy. The reeds' moderate strength of 3.0 is suitable for beginning clarinetists yet responsive enough for advancing musicians.

Traditional Cut Provides Freedom of Expression

Rico Royal reeds boast a traditional French cut that allows for expressive control and clarity of tone, especially in the lower register. Their filed edges and comfortable profile make articulating soft notes and executing legato phrases effortless. The reeds' traditional shape also supports proper embouchure development in beginners while meeting the demands of more advanced techniques in experienced players.

Resilient yet Responsive Design

Constructed from cane, Rico Royal reeds produce a resonant, balanced tone yet are durable enough to last through multiple practice sessions and performances. Their strength of 3.0 offers enough firmness for a focused sound yet flexibility for expressive playing. Whether used by students, amateurs or professionals, these reeds enable clarinetists to coax a refined, nuanced tone from their instrument.

Convenient Packaging and Sizing

Rico Royal reeds are available for B-flat clarinets in a range of strengths to suit musicians of all levels. Packaged in a box of 10, the reeds offer great value. Each reed comes in its own protective plastic casing to prevent warping and keep the reed in optimal playing condition when not in use. With the Rico Royal reeds, clarinetists always have a fresh reed on hand for their next practice or performance.

    I'm retracting myself to play as I haven't played in over 10 years and these are a great strength to jump back in with. I've always used Rico reeds, but I really like the quality of the Royal ones over the normal reeds.

  • A good product at a fair price

    I pulled a reed out of the box and was surprised with the sound quality and ease of performance. First time ever that the first reed out of the box was a winner.
