Vandoren V16 tenor saxophone reeds deliver a dark, warm jazz tone inspired by the classic sound of vintage tenor giants. The thicker spine and traditional cut produce a rich, round sound with smooth projection that's perfect for straight-ahead jazz, swing, blues, and ballad playing. Strength 2.5 provides balanced resistance.

On tenor, the V16's dark character is especially appealing. It brings out the instrument's natural warmth and depth, producing a sound that's lush and inviting rather than bright and aggressive. These reeds pair beautifully with V16 and vintage-style mouthpieces. For the tenor player who values warmth above all else. 5-pack.
