Review: Amazing reeds - My son loves these above any other we’ve found. It’s nice being able to choose sizes as well since different teachers ask for specific sizes. The price is well below what our local music stores have but the quality is superb. Review: Great Reeds, Great Sound, Even Better Price - These are my son's favorite reeds! Since he has started playing musical instruments. These reeds last a good long while, were as other fall apart and fail. These will last most of the school year, my son is hard on them. They are also very affordable, I can buy five of these reeds for the cost of one at a local music supply store. And while I love supporting local shops when it comes to band for my son, I try and get the best and these are his favorite and best lasting one. Lets face facts people teen boys are not always careful with their stuff, my son sometimes didn't take the best care of these reeds and they still held up well and be a 3 was another plus as they are impossible to find in local stores. If you have a child in band in school I really suggest these reeds they hold up to children/teen use and abuse and you get every penny worth of use out of them. They sound great too. My son's band teacher loves these and suggests them to all his students. Your money is wisely spent with this product. ## Features - Traditional reeds are known for their excellent response in all registers, allowing a pianissimo attack in even highest notes. - Extremely flexible, allowing the legato or staccato execution of large intervals while maintaining a richness of tone that gives body and clarity to the sound, which is a hallmark of Vandoren reeds. - Traditional reeds are available for all clarinets and saxophones in various strengths. - Every reed sealed in 'Flow Pack' to ensure freshness. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0002E1OZ4 | | Best Sellers Rank | #225 in Musical Instruments ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments ) #5 in Clarinet Reeds | | Brand Name | Vandoren | | Color | Dark brown/black (mouthpiece) | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (2,466) | | Finish Type | Polished | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00008576110260 | | Included Components | 5 Vandoren Traditional Bass Clarinet Reeds | | Instrument Key | B Flat | | Item Dimensions | 1.5 x 2.5 x 4.5 inches | | Item Type Name | Clarinet Reeds | | Item Weight | 0.05 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Vandoren | | Manufacturer Part Number | CR123 | | Material Type | Cane | | Model Name | CR123 | | Model Number | CR123 | | Set Name | 5-Pack | | Sound Profile | Balanced, full-bodied with clear highs | | Style | Strength 3 | | UPC | 805232251820 008576500856 008576110260 | | Unit Count | 5.0 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Vandoren - **Color:** Dark brown/black (mouthpiece) - **Instrument Key:** B Flat - **Material:** Cane - **Style:** Strength 3 ## Images ![Vandoren CR123 Bass Clarinet Traditional Reeds Strength 3; Box of 5 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61zNXOEzjNL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing reeds *by K***E on January 21, 2026* My son loves these above any other we’ve found.
