The Yamaha ASR30 is a synthetic reed for alto saxophone at strength 3, designed to be ready to play right out of the package with no soaking or breaking-in required. Made from a Yamaha-developed formula based on natural fibrous cane, it offers a tone, look, and feel close to a traditional cane reed, with an original shape featuring a stronger central rib for balanced playability across the instrument's range. A special heat-treating process helps produce a deep tone and smooth sound production.
Built for durability, Yamaha synthetic reeds can be played for many months without becoming weak or losing tone, meaning fewer reed replacements over time. The reed strength is laser-engraved on the back so it won't fade, and strengths follow the same numbering system as traditional cane reeds, making it easy to find your equivalent.
Strength 3 is a medium-resistance reed suited to intermediate players with a more developed embouchure who want fuller tone and greater control. This listing is for one reed.
