Product Description
For the advanced player. Made from thicker cane, recommended for long facing mouthpieces. V. 12 reeds are manufactured from cane tubes of the same diameter as those used for saxophone reeds. This leads to a higher manufacturing cost, as large diameter cane is more rare. V. 12 reeds are thicker at each end: thickness at the tip: . 10mm (0. 004 inch) thickness at the heel: 3. 15mm (0. 124 inches, hence the name V. 12) in comparing Strengths, a V. 12 strength 4 Reed is almost equal to a traditional strength 3 1/2 Reed.

I prefer V12 to other Van Doren styles because they work better with my Behn Epic mouthpiece. Individual players may like other styles, but V12 works for the sound I like for orchestral, band, chamber, and solo work. These are authentic Van Dorens, as verified by putting individual reed codes (stamped on the back of each reed) into the Van Doren reed authenticator on their website. Beware of knockoffs--always check your reed codes, especially if you order online from a source you aren't familiar with.
I give 4 stars because Van Doren reeds are notorious for having only a small percentage which are really good--the rest require reed adjustment, which takes a degree of knowledge, skill, patience and time, not to mention tools.
I trust this supplier to have authentic Van Dorens.
Are they overpriced? The Amazon price is actually extremely good and I think still makes them a good value. I've tried some newer reeds, some that outperform these for band music where a little more brightness is tolerable and enjoyable but I still think the V12 is a great cut for an all-rounder reed that can tackle many different styles of music in one sitting.
My only complaint is that they don't come in quarter sizes like most newer reeds do. Easily fixed by sanding down the bottom on the Vandoren glass resurfacing kit.
