This reed is designed to produce a quality of extremely pure sound due to a very thin reed tip (the area of reed with maximum vibration), being balanced by a solid vertebral column (more cane in the area which climbs gradually to the heel). Traditional reeds are known for their excellent response in all registers, allowing a pianissimo attack in even highest notes.
