I'm always looking for a good synthetic reed. Honestly, this reed is just as good as several synth reeds out there on the market and Yamaha is actually one of them. I used Bari reeds for years back in the 80s and 90s. This reed will play and it will provide a solid foundation and reliability. I would definitely recommend this for marching band venues and big band gigs where you need to produce sound and volume but you're not worried about recording level quality. If you have the chops you can probably make this reed sound great. However, if you're a cane purist you may not want to use this for recording solo work. Three reeds for less than seven dollars will last most high school students four years or more. The 2.5 strength is pretty accurate but on the stiff side for me. What I do not know is longevity but I can't see these wearing out anytime soon. Even if you try these and don't like them you didn't really lose anything. I have a few synth reeds that cost me a pretty penny and I hate them and can't really use them since I do a lot of solo performance work. Whether or not I use the Kooing Tech reeds I don't have to worry about being out a whole lot a money.

I received three of these and wasted no time putting one onto my horn. As I began playing I noted it definitely had a weird feel. When I stopped trying to play it and inspected it closely, I noted the reed was simply too thin for my mouthpiece. (In the photo I used a vintage mouthpiece with a steel plate underneath so the contrast in color is more clear.) The weird feeling was playing a reed that didn't quite stretch all the way across the mouthpiece opening. I got a natural cane reed for comparison and confirmed: these reeds are too narrow. If they were too wide, they could be trimmed to proper size. But I can't untrim undersized reeds. I can’t even use them for practice. These are going in the trash.
